Cross-sectional Retrospective Study on Paracetamol Post Infants' Vaccination in Malaysia.

Introduction: Practice of dispensing paracetamol (PCM) in post infants' vaccination remains debatable in Malaysia as the administration of PCM postvaccination in infants was found to cause the vaccine to be less effective, thus requiring appropriate regulation measures.

Objective: This research aimed to investigate the prevalence of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) with/without PCM to be prescribed post infants' vaccination in Malaysia (possible associated factors: age, types and stages of vaccination, concomitant vaccines and drugs, and/vitamins).

Materials And Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted from 2011 to 2017.
