CONTRAINDICATIONS / PRECAUTIONS
General Information
Pneumococcal vaccines are contraindicated in patients who have had a previous hypersensitivity reaction to the vaccine to be administered or to any components of the vaccine. Prevnar 13, Prevnar 20, and Vaxneuvance are contraindicated in patients who have had a hypersensitivity reaction to any diphtheria toxoid-containing vaccine. As with any biologic product, the prescriber or health care professional should have procedures in place to manage allergic reactions. The health care professional should have immediate availability of epinephrine (1 mg/mL) injection and other agents used in the treatment of severe anaphylaxis in the event of a serious allergic reaction to the pneumococcal vaccines.
Intravenous administration
Do not give the pneumococcal vaccines via intravenous administration. Prior to administration, health care personnel should inform the patient, parent, guardian, or responsible adult of the vaccine's benefits and risks. This should include the provision of the vaccine information statement from the manufacturer. The responsible adult should report any adverse reaction after vaccine administration to the health care provider. The US Department of Health and Human Services has established a Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) to accept all reports of suspected adverse events after the administration of any vaccine. This includes, but is not limited to, the reporting of events required by the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. The toll-free number for VAERS is (800) 822-7967.
Fever
Pneumococcal vaccine can cause fever, so it should not be given to patients with fever of unknown etiology. During the 2010-2011 influenza season, there were increased reports of febrile seizures in children 6 months to 4 years of age receiving the inactivated influenza vaccine and the conjugated pneumococcal vaccine (Prevnar 13) concomitantly. At this time the CDC is not recommending any changes to the childhood immunization schedule, and based on the benefits of timely vaccination against these diseases, they are also not recommending that the vaccines be separated into multiple healthcare visits. The CDC found that febrile seizures were rare in this group with approximately one additional seizure occurring for every 2000—3000 children vaccinated. Febrile seizures occurred most commonly in children 12—23 months of age who received both vaccines at the same healthcare visit.
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP)
Use pneumococcal vaccine with caution in patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) because pneumococcal vaccination has been associated with relapse of this condition in previously stabilized patients.
Cardiac disease, pulmonary disease
Use pneumococcal vaccine cautiously in patients with severe cardiac disease or pulmonary disease because anaphylactoid reactions may not be well tolerated in these individuals.
Chemotherapy, Hodgkin's disease, immunosuppression, organ transplant, radiation therapy
Pneumococcal vaccine should be given at least 2 weeks before elective splenectomy, organ transplant, immunosuppressive therapy, or chemotherapy. Patients with severe immunosuppression can have a suboptimal antibody response to vaccination. The formerly-available 12 valent pneumococcal vaccine was less immunogenic in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma who had received intensive chemo- or radio-therapy. Furthermore, the 12 valent vaccine has been shown to decrease preexisting antibody concentrations to other strains of pneumococcus. Because of this, the 23 valent pneumococcal vaccine is not indicated in Hodgkin lymphoma patients who have received intensive chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. In patients (age 2 to 71 years) who received an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant 3 to 6 months prior to a series of PCV13 vaccines, sera was obtained approximately one month after each vaccination. Immune responses (IgG GMCs) were numerically higher after the first dose compared with baseline and were, similarly, numerically higher after each subsequent dose compared to the previous dose.
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
Compared to healthy individuals, patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection generally have lower vaccine-induced antibody concentrations, which are proportional to the severity of infection (i.e., CD4 counts) and are lowest in those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) may be administered to all persons with HIV, regardless of CD4 counts. In those who receive the PCV13 when the CD4 count is less than 200 cells/mm3, some experts may choose to defer the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23) until CD4 counts are above 200 cells/mm3 in order to optimize vaccine efficacy. Vaccination is increasingly pertinent with the rising incidence of drug-resistant S. pneumoniae infections. Pneumococcal vaccine can be administered to pregnant patients. In studies evaluating antibody response to the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in children and adults with HIV infection, antipneumococcal opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) geometric mean antibody titers (GMTs) for all vaccine serotypes were higher than pre-vaccination concentrations after the first dose, and were generally comparable after subsequent doses.
Children, infants
The efficacy of pneumococcal 23-valent vaccine (Pneumovax 23) is reduced in children younger than 5 years, and it is not recommended in infants and children younger than 2 years of age. The conjugated pneumococcal vaccine (Prevnar 13) is safe and effective for routine pneumococcal prophylaxis in healthy infants older than 6 weeks of age and children younger than 18 years of age. However, safety and efficacy data are limited regarding use of Prevnar 13 in immunocompromised pediatric patients. Immunocompromised patients may display reduced antibody response to the Prevnar 13; therefore, Prevnar 13 does not replace vaccination with Pneumovax 23 in children 2 years of age and older with sickle cell disease, asplenia, chronic illnesses, or other immune-compromising conditions. In addition, apnea has occurred in some premature infants after intramuscular injections; therefore, carefully consider the possible risks and benefits prior to intramuscular vaccine administration in premature infants. During the 2010-2011 influenza season, there were increased reports of febrile seizures in children 6 months to 4 years of age receiving the inactivated influenza vaccine and the conjugated pneumococcal vaccine (Prevnar 13) concomitantly. At this time, the CDC is not recommending any changes to the childhood immunization schedule, and based on the benefits of timely vaccination against these diseases, separating the vaccines into multiple healthcare visits also is not being recommended. The CDC found that febrile seizures were rare in this group with approximately 1 additional seizure occurring for every 2,000 to 3,000 children vaccinated. Febrile seizures occurred most commonly in children 12 to 23 months of age who received both vaccines at the same healthcare visit.
Neonates, premature neonates
Apnea has occurred in some premature neonates and infants after intramuscular injections. The risks and benefits of intramuscular injections, including vaccination with the pneumococcal vaccine, must be considered on an individual patient basis. In addition, health care providers are advised that immunogenicity may be lower in premature neonates. In one study, premature neonates (< 37 weeks gestational age; n = 100) receiving Prevnar 13 on a non-United States 4 dose schedule displayed lower serotype-specific IgG antibody responses after the 3rd and 4th doses when compared to term neonates (>= 37 weeks gestational age; n = 100). Safety and efficacy have not been established for Prevnar 13 in infants < 6 weeks of age; Pneumovax 23 is not recommended for use in infants.
Pregnancy
Available data on pneumococcal vaccine administered to pregnant women are insufficient to inform vaccine-associated risks in pregnancy. No adequate and well controlled studies have been conducted in pregnant women. In rabbits, a dose approximately 20 times the human dose, given prior to mating and during gestation, did not impair female fertility and no fetal malformations were noted. According to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), administration of inactivated vaccines to pregnant women has not resulted in adverse effects in the fetus. The ACIP recommends vaccination during pregnancy when the likelihood of disease exposure is high, potential infection would cause harm to mother or fetus, and when the vaccine is unlikely to cause harm. The FDA-approved product labeling recommends administration of the vaccine only if clearly needed.
Breast-feeding
Data are limited regarding use of the pneumococcal vaccine during breast-feeding and its' excretion in human breast milk is unknown. The manufacturer recommends caution when administering to nursing mothers; however according to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), inactivated vaccines pose no risk for mothers or their infants. Additionally, breast-feeding does not adversely affect immunization; limited data suggest breast-feeding may enhance the immune response to certain vaccine antigens. Consider the benefits of breast-feeding, the risk of potential infant drug exposure, and the risk of an untreated or inadequately treated condition. If a breast-feeding infant experiences an adverse effect related to a maternally administered drug, health care providers are encouraged to report the adverse effect to the FDA.
Anticoagulant therapy, coagulopathy, hemophilia, thrombocytopenia, vitamin K deficiency
The pneumococcal vaccine, polyvalent is indicated for intramuscular administration. Therefore, the vaccine should be given cautiously to persons receiving anticoagulant therapy. Also, patients with thrombocytopenia, coagulopathy (e.g., hemophilia), other bleeding disorders, or vitamin K deficiency should be monitored closely for bleeding at the IM injection site. Steps to avoid hematoma formation are recommended.
DRUG INTERACTIONS

However, reduced antibody responses were not observed after the fourth dose of Prevnar 13 with prophylactic acetaminophen.
Ocrelizumab: (Moderate) Administer all non-live vaccines at least 2 weeks before ocrelizumab initiation, whenever possible. Ocrelizumab may interfere with the effectiveness of non-live virus vaccines. Attenuated antibody responses to tetanus toxoid-containing vaccine, pneumococcal polysaccharide and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines, and seasonal influenza vaccine were observed in patients exposed to ocrelizumab at the time of vaccination during an open-label study. Infants born to mothers exposed to ocrelizumab during pregnancy may receive non-live vaccines as indicated before B-cell recovery; however, consider assessing the immune response to the vaccine. ACIP recommends that patients receiving any vaccination during immunosuppressive therapy or in the 2 weeks prior to starting therapy should be considered unimmunized and should be revaccinated a minimum of 3 months after discontinuation of therapy. Passive immunoprophylaxis with immune globulins may be indicated for immunocompromised persons instead of, or in addition to, vaccination.
Ofatumumab: (Major) Administer all needed non-live vaccines according to immunization guidelines at least 2 weeks before initiation of ofatumumab. Ofatumumab may interfere with the effectiveness of inactivated vaccines due to its actions, which cause B-cell depletion.
Oxaprozin: (Moderate) Concomitant administration of antipyretics, such as nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), may decrease an individual's immunological response to the pneumococcal vaccine.
