WHAT JESPECT
®
IS
USED FOR
JESPECT
®
is a vaccine. It
helps prevent Japanese
encephalitis _(en-kef-al-i-tis)_, a
severe and often fatal
infection of the brain. Some
of those who recover from
the disease are often left with
brain damage.
Japanese encephalitis is
caused by the Japanese
encephalitis virus that mainly
occurs in Asia. The virus is
transmitted to humans by
infected mosquitoes that feed
on human blood.
JESPECT
®
is used to
vaccinate persons 18 years
and older who:
•
plan to live in or travel to
areas where Japanese
encephalitis is common
or seasonal. Your doctor
will explain your
individual risk of catching
the disease
•
work with Japanese
encephalitis virus.
JESPECT
®
is given as two
injections 28 days apart. The
vaccination course should be
completed at least one week
before potential exposure to
the Japanese encephalitis
virus.

JESPECT
®

substances called antibodies.
These antibodies fight the
Japanese encephalitis virus.
When you come into contact
with the virus, your body is
usually ready to destroy it.
Most people who receive
both doses of the vaccine will
produce enough anti
