Description
Adacel-Polio is a combination vaccine that provides booster protection against four serious diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), and polio. It is typically used as a booster dose in individuals who have already received their primary vaccinations for these diseases.
Uses:
- Diphtheria Protection: Diphtheria is a bacterial infection that can cause severe throat and breathing problems, and potentially life-threatening complications. The vaccine helps maintain immunity against this disease.
- Tetanus Protection: Tetanus, also known as lockjaw, is a bacterial infection that can cause severe muscle stiffness and spasms. The vaccine provides ongoing protection, especially important for individuals who may be at risk of cuts or wounds.
- Pertussis (Whooping Cough) Protection: Pertussis is a highly contagious respiratory disease that can cause severe coughing fits. The booster helps protect against whooping cough, which is especially important for preventing the spread of the disease to infants and others at risk.
- Polio Protection: Polio is a viral disease that can cause paralysis and even death. Adacel-Polio helps maintain immunity against all three types of poliovirus, preventing the disease’s resurgence.
