1.    A concentration of 1:10,000 is equivalent to a 0.01% concentration. Thimerosal is approximately 50% Hg by weight.   A 1:10,000 concentration contains 25 micrograms of Hg per 0.5 mL.
2. A previously marketed lyophilized preparation contained 0.005% thimerosal.
3. COMVAX is not approved for use under 6 weeks of age because of decreased response to the Hib component.

*
This product should be considered equivalent to thimerosal-free products.  This vaccine may contain trace amounts (<0.3 mcg) of mercury left after post-production thimerosal removal; these amounts have no biological effect.   JAMA 1999;282(18) and JAMA 2000;283(16).
