Rs. 1,999
Whitefield - Bengaluru
The Tdap vaccine is the combination vaccine that protects against 3 diseases that are tetanus, diphteria and pertussis. The vaccine works by introducing a small, harmless piece of the bacteria into the body, which triggers the immune system to produce antibodies to fight off the actual bacteria. It is particularly important for healthcare workers, teachers, and anyone who is in close contact with infants younger than 12 months old, as they are at greater risk of contracting and spreading these diseases. The vaccine is generally safe and effective, with few side effects such as soreness, redness, or swelling at the injection site, and fever. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine if the Tdap vaccine is right for you.

1. Protection against tetanus: Tetanus is a serious bacterial infection that can cause muscle stiffness, spasms, and breathing difficulties. The Tdap vaccine provides protection against tetanus by stimulating the body's immune system to produce antibodies against the bacteria.

2. Protection against diphtheria: Diphtheria is a bacterial infection that can cause a thick coating in the nose, throat, and airways, making it difficult to breathe. The Tdap vaccine provides protection against diphtheria by stimulating the body's immune system to produce antibodies against the bacteria.

3. Protection against pertussis: Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is a highly contagious bacterial infection that can cause severe coughing spells and difficulty breathing. The Tdap vaccine provides protection against pertussis by stimulating the body's immune system to produce antibodies against the bacteria.
