  • Analysis of program integration strategies in developing countries.
  • Assessment of potential interferences between breastfeeding and vaccination.

    • Main Results:

    • Breastfeeding does not negatively impact routine immunizations as per the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) schedule.
    • Integrated programs enhance the effectiveness of both breastfeeding promotion and immunization efforts.
    • Mutual benefits exist: breastfeeding supports EPI, and EPI supports breastfeeding.

    Conclusions:

    • Coordinated implementation of breastfeeding promotion and immunization maximizes child survival benefits.
    • Integrated interventions align with primary healthcare principles for balanced child survival strategies.
    • Healthcare systems should leverage every contact to promote both breastfeeding and immunization.
