Complete Baby & Child Immunization Schedule (Indonesia)
The complete primary immunization schedule for Indonesia, following the Kemenkes national program aligned with IDAI recommendations: from the birth-day Hepatitis B (HB-0) dose through the 18-month boosters. All government-program vaccines are free at posyandu and puskesmas.
| Age | Vaccine | Protects against | Where to get it |
|---|---|---|---|
| At birth | Hepatitis B (HB-0) | Hepatitis B infection, including mother-to-baby transmission at birth that can lead to long-term liver disease. | Posyandu & puskesmas |
| 1 month | BCG | Severe childhood tuberculosis (TB), such as miliary TB and TB meningitis. | Posyandu & puskesmas |
| Oral Polio 1 (bOPV 1) | Poliomyelitis (polio), a virus that can cause permanent paralysis. | Posyandu & puskesmas | |
| 2 months | DPT-HB-Hib 1 | Five diseases in one shot: diphtheria, whooping cough (pertussis), tetanus, hepatitis B, and Haemophilus influenzae type b, a leading cause of pneumonia and meningitis in toddlers. | Posyandu/puskesmas & IDAI clinics |
| Oral Polio 2 (bOPV 2) | Poliomyelitis (polio). The second dose reinforces the first. | Posyandu & puskesmas | |
| 3 months | DPT-HB-Hib 2 | Same as the first dose: diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B, and Hib. The second dose raises protection before the primary series is completed at 4 months. | Posyandu/puskesmas & IDAI clinics |
| Oral Polio 3 (bOPV 3) | Poliomyelitis (polio). The third dose completes the oral polio primary series. | Posyandu & puskesmas | |
| 4 months | DPT-HB-Hib 3 | The third and final DPT-HB-Hib primary dose. After it, protection against diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B, and Hib is at full strength, maintained later by the 18-month booster. | Posyandu/puskesmas & IDAI clinics |
| Oral Polio 4 (bOPV 4) | Poliomyelitis (polio). The fourth dose strengthens gut immunity against wild poliovirus. | Posyandu & puskesmas | |
| Injectable Polio (IPV) | All poliovirus types. IPV builds blood-level immunity on top of the oral drops, part of the global polio eradication strategy. | Posyandu & puskesmas | |
| 9 months | MR 1 (Measles-Rubella) | Measles and rubella. Measles is highly contagious and can cause pneumonia and encephalitis; rubella is dangerous to pregnant women. | Posyandu & puskesmas |
| 18 months | DPT-HB-Hib Booster | Keeps immunity to diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B, and Hib high. Antibodies from the 2–4 month primary series fade over time. | Posyandu/puskesmas & IDAI clinics |
| MR 2 (Measles-Rubella Booster) | A second measles–rubella dose pushes protection close to 100%. A small share of children do not fully respond to the first dose. | Posyandu/puskesmas & IDAI clinics |
Vaccines by age
A detailed page for each age: reasons, side effects, posyandu prep, and FAQs.
-
Vaccines at birth
Before your baby leaves the hospital or birth facility, one vaccine should already be given: Hepatitis B (HB-0). It is the first step of the complete primary immunization series and is given on day one of life.
-
Vaccines at 1 month
At 1 month your baby receives two vaccines at once: BCG against severe TB and Oral Polio 1 (bOPV 1) to open the polio series. Both are free at posyandu and puskesmas.
-
Vaccines at 2 months
At 2 months your baby starts the most important vaccine series of early childhood: DPT-HB-Hib 1 (one shot against five diseases) and Oral Polio 2. This is the first of three consecutive visits at 2, 3, and 4 months.
-
Vaccines at 3 months
The 3-month visit repeats last month's combination: DPT-HB-Hib 2 and Oral Polio 3. This second dose is what lifts protection from partial to strong.
-
Vaccines at 4 months
The 4-month visit closes the primary series: DPT-HB-Hib 3, Oral Polio 4, and, for the first time, the injectable polio vaccine (IPV). After today your baby's primary protection is complete until MR at 9 months.
-
Vaccines at 9 months
After the gap since 4 months comes the next big visit: MR 1 (measles–rubella) at 9 months. One arm shot that protects against two highly contagious diseases.
-
Vaccines at 18 months
At 18 months your baby (now an active toddler) receives two boosters: MR 2 and the DPT-HB-Hib booster. These refresh the primary-series protection before it wanes with age.
Key notes
- HB-0 is given within the first 24 hours after birth, before discharge from the birth facility.
- BCG is best given before 3 months of age.
- DPT-HB-Hib and polio doses need at least 4 weeks (28 days) between them.
- A delayed schedule is not restarted. Just resume where you left off (catch-up schedule).
- The 18-month MR 2 and DPT-HB-Hib booster follow IDAI guidance; in the Kemenkes program MR-2 comes via the grade-1 school BIAS program.
