Teddyvac .5ML

Teddyvac .5ML contains Tetanus vaccine (Tetanus toxoid) 0.5 mL injection (strength in IU not specified).

Prevention of tetanus (lockjaw) in children and adults; used for routine immunization and as a booster after injury/wound contamination risk

The vaccine contains inactivated tetanus toxin (toxoid) that cannot cause disease. It stimulates the immune system to produce protective antibodies and immune memory against tetanus toxin.

For intramuscular use only. Administer 0.5 mL as per national immunization schedule/doctor’s advice (primary series and boosters). Shake well if applicable; do not inject intravenously; can be given with or without food.

Injection site pain, redness, swelling, mild fever, headache, fatigue, body aches, nausea

Do not use if there is a history of severe allergy (anaphylaxis) to any component or after a previous dose. Postpone in case of moderate/severe acute illness or high fever (minor infections usually not a contraindication). Use caution in people with bleeding disorders (IM injection may cause hematoma). Keep emergency treatment for allergic reactions available. This vaccine does not treat active tetanus; seek medical care for high-risk wounds.

Immunosuppressants (e.g., high-dose corticosteroids, chemotherapy) may reduce vaccine response; may be co-administered with other vaccines at different sites; anticoagulants/antiplatelets may increase injection-site bleeding risk

Store at 2–8°C (refrigerated). Do not freeze. Protect from light. Keep in original pack; discard if frozen or if vial/solution shows abnormalities.
