Aid the parents with the armor of knowledge! In this issue we speak about the DTP & IPV booster and its importance. Through this input, help the parents know more about this vaccine so that their child does not miss on this important school entry booster!
What is DTP & IPV vaccine?
DTP & IPV booster vaccines are given to protect your child against infections caused by1
- Diphtheria
- Tetanus
- Pertussis
- Poliovirus
The vaccine causes the body to produce a shield against these diseases1
How serious are these diseases?
These diseases can cause breathing difficulties, heart problems, muscle spasms and inability to walk, paralysis, and even death1
Why do we need boosters?
- High disease transmission and waning of immunity against the disease among school entry children3,4
- Once vaccinated the child is protected for long term5
- New ACVIP guideline recommends the DTP & IPV booster shot in school entry children5
DTP & IPV as school entry boosters
- Booster can be given independent to the primary vaccine(s) or previous vaccination schedule6
- Maintains high immunity from early childhood up until the adolescent booster7
- Is well-tolerated in toddlers8
