Measles vaccines are live vaccines that work against measles alone or in combination with other agents, specifically with rubella (MR), mumps and rubella (MMR), or mumps, rubella, and varicella (MMRV). The vaccines are typically given in two doses, the first before 15 months of age and the second dose later; timing of the dosages varies by country or region.
