Sanofi Pasteur Vaccine Updates

We wanted to make you aware of several updates regarding Sanofi Pasteur vaccines:

Customer End-of-Year Promotion – CPP Members will receive an additional 3% discount off of Menactra® and Adacel® doses ordered between now and Wednesday, December 16, 2015.  Orders must ship by Thursday, December 17, 2015.

Pentacel® Supply – Sanofi Pasteur is experiencing a manufacturing delay with Pentacel® and anticipates it will not be able to meet full demand throughout the first half of 2016.  In an effort to manage through this period, they are implementing customer level allocations – about 65%-85% of your monthly demand.  To help offset the gap in Pentacel® vaccine supply, Daptacel®, ActHIB®, and IPOL® will be be available at 125% of demand so that you have single-entity vaccines available to cover any pentacel shortage and maintain your immunization schedule.

CPP recommends members consider purchasing the entire allocated amount of Pentacel® for your practice each month in order to maintain your level of allocation throughout the entire period of constrained supply.

Price Increases – Sanofi Pasteur has announced price increases to many of their vaccines.

  • The new pricing for Adacel®, Diphtheria and Tetanus, Tenivac®, Tubersol®, Imogam® Rabies HT, Typhim Vi® and YF-Vax® will go into effect January 1, 2016.
  • Due to the supply issue mentioned above, the new pricing for Pentacel®, Daptacel®, IPOL®, and ActHIB® will be delayed and will go into effect July 1, 2016.

If you have any questions, please contact your Sanofi Pasteur representative or the CPP office at 614-722-2145.
