Hi Moms,
I am looking for a pharamacy that sells the individual MMR shots, Mumpsvax, Meruvax II and Attenuvax. Does anyone know of a pharamcy that has the indivual shots? The pharmacy I was planning on using is currently out of stock. Located in West Chester, PA but will travel to pick them up.

Thank You!

So What Happened?

Thank you to everyone that responded!!!! Unfortunately Merck no longer makes the individual shots. Spoke to them directly before I posted. Thanks for the recommendations on Rosemont Pharmacy and Dr Foreman. I called both places but unfortunately as well, both of them only have the combined vaccination as well since Merck was previously the only pharmaceutical company that made the individual vaccines.

An update I received from Dr. Sears' website a few weeks ago stated that the drug company that made the seperate shots is no longer making them. I have no verified this for myself yet. I'm very disappointed by this news and am hoping a recent court verdict linking the MMR shot and autism might bring about some changes.

Unfortunately, I just heard from my pediatrician that Merck stopped producing the individual vaccines due to an increased need for the combined MMR vaccine. I know that Hopewell Pharmacy in NJ used to have them, but last I heard, they were also out of stock and did not have a restocking date. Hope I am wrong!
