Table 2: Immunisation total recommended doses by age
This table shows the recommended doses for age as provided by the National Immunisation Program Schedule.

A child's age in months determines how many doses of each immunisation should have been received. For example, by age 6 months a child should have had 3 doses of DTPa.
The number of doses for age will differ between States and Territories due to the needs of geographic and demographic conditions.
