FDA OKs Pfizer’s 20-valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine for Infants and Children

 

  • PREVNAR 20 offers the broadest serotype coverage of any pediatric pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, helping to protect against all 20 serotypes contained in the vaccine

  • PREVNAR 20 builds on PREVNAR 13® and includes seven additional serotypes shown to be associated with antibiotic resistance, heightened disease severity, invasive potential, and prevalence in pediatric pneumococcal cases.1

  • The vaccine further advances Pfizer’s pediatric pneumococcal vaccine portfolio and builds on more than 20 years of Pfizer leadership, legacy and innovation in developing pneumococcal conjugate vaccines
