Despite of the efficacy of BCG vaccine especially against infants' meningitis, it has still some limitations due to a variety of adverse effects. Many studies have evaluated the side effects of different strains of BCG vaccines in different countries. In Iran, some studies have been done so far to evaluate the adverse effects of 1173 P2 strain which is used for BCG vaccination. Each of these studies have used different standardization and sampling methods. This review will survey all studies that have been published about adverse effects of 1173 P2 strain of BCG vaccine in Iran using data mining methods. %G English %Z We appreciate all works have been done in Iran for BCG vaccine by scientists in Iran or outside. These data would be very useful for BCG producers as a feedback of their products. We appreciate the Ministry of Health and Medical Education responsible for all diseases control for their efforts to improve health quality in Iran and their supports of high-quality products. %2 https://riip.hal.science/pasteur-02896898/document %2 https://riip.hal.science/pasteur-02896898/file/Adverse%20effects%20of%20BCG%20vaccine%201173%20P2%20in%20Iran.pdf %L pasteur-02896898 %U https://riip.hal.science/pasteur-02896898 %~ RIIP %~ RIIP_IRAN
