About Diphtheria Toxoid+haemophilus Influenzae Type B Conjugate+hepatitis B Vaccine Rdna+pertussis Toxoid+tetanus Toxoid+inactivated Poliomyelitis Trivalent Vaccine
Diphtheria Toxoid+haemophilus Influenzae Type B Conjugate+hepatitis B Vaccine Rdna+pertussis Toxoid+tetanus Toxoid+inactivated Poliomyelitis Trivalent Vaccine belongs to the group of medicines called 'immunizing agents' primarily used to prevent infections such as Diphtheria, Haemophilus influenzae type B (Hib), Hepatitis B, Pertussis, Tetanus, and Poliomyelitis in children. It is given to infants starting at 6 weeks old, followed by a booster shot at age 2. Diphtheria is a serious bacterial infection that affects the nose and throat, leading to difficulty breathing, heart failure, paralysis, and death. Hib is a life-threatening bacterial infection that mainly affects children under 5 years of age. Hepatitis B is a severe viral infection affecting the liver. Pertussis (whooping cough) is a respiratory tract infection caused by bacteria. Tetanus (lockjaw) is caused by bacteria that enter the body through deep cuts, wounds, or burns and affect the nervous system. Poliomyelitis (Polio) is a viral disease that can damage the nerves in the brainstem or spinal cord, leading to paralysis.
Diphtheria Toxoid+haemophilus Influenzae Type B Conjugate+hepatitis B Vaccine Rdna+pertussis Toxoid+tetanus Toxoid+inactivated Poliomyelitis Trivalent Vaccine contains a combination of six vaccines: Diphtheria Toxoid, Haemophilus influenzae Type B Conjugate, Hepatitis B Vaccine rDNA, Pertussis Toxoid, Tetanus Toxoid, and Inactivated Poliomyelitis Trivalent Vaccine. This medication works by introducing a weakened or inactivated form of the disease-causing agent into the body, stimulating the immune system to develop antibodies and antitoxins to fight against the specific disease. Thus, Diphtheria Toxoid+haemophilus Influenzae Type B Conjugate+hepatitis B Vaccine Rdna+pertussis Toxoid+tetanus Toxoid+inactivated Poliomyelitis Trivalent Vaccine effectively provides immunity or resistance against these infections without actually triggering the illness.

Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Diphtheria: It is a contagious infection caused by a type of bacteria called Corynebacterium diphtheriae. It creates a thick layer of dead tissue in the nose or throat, making it hard to swallow and breathe. Other symptoms include swollen glands in the neck, weakness, fever, and a sore throat. It causes serious problems like lung infections, paralysis, or even death.
Haemophilus Influenzae Type B (Hib): It is a life-threatening bacterial infection that mainly affects children under 5 years of age. It can cause serious illnesses such as pneumonia (lung infection), bacteremia (bloodstream infection), epiglottitis (throat infection), or meningitis (inflammation of the lining of the spinal cord and brain).
Hepatitis B: It is a severe liver disease caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV). Acute (short-term) HBV infection can cause loss of appetite, tiredness, fever, light-colored stools, dark urine, joint and muscle pain, and yellow eyes or skin (jaundice). Chronic (long-term) HBV infection can lead to serious liver damage, such as liver failure, cirrhosis, or cancer. The virus spreads through blood, sexual contact, or from mother to baby during birth.
Pertussis (Whooping Cough): It is a highly contagious disease caused by the Bordetella pertussis bacteria. It starts with a runny nose, cough, and fever, but can develop into severe coughing fits followed by a high-pitched 'whoop' sound. Babies with whooping cough can face serious complications like seizures, pneumonia, or brain damage.
Tetanus (Lockjaw): It is caused by the bacteria Clostridium tetani. The main symptom is painful tightness in the jaw muscles (known as lockjaw), which makes it hard to open your mouth, swallow, or breathe. Other symptoms include fever, sweating, headache, seizures, muscle stiffness, and high blood pressure. It can cause serious complications like paralysis and death.
Poliomyelitis (Polio): It is a viral disease that mainly damages the nerves in the brainstem or spinal cord that control muscle movement. In its most severe form, polio can result in irreversible paralysis, leaving a person unable to move certain limbs. It can also cause breathing difficulties and, in some cases, may be fatal.
