WHAT REPEVAX IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
REPEVAX is a vaccine. Vaccines are used to protect against infectious
diseases. They work by causing the
body to produce its own protection against the bacteria and viruses
that cause the targeted diseases.
This vaccine is used to boost protection against diphtheria, tetanus,
pertussis (whooping cough) and
poliomyelitis (polio) in children from the age of three years,
adolescents and adults following a complete
primary course of vaccination.
LIMITATIONS IN THE PROTECTION PROVIDED
REPEVAX will only prevent these diseases if they are caused by the
bacteria or viruses targeted by the
vaccine. You or your child could still get similar diseases if they
are caused by other bacteria or viruses.
REPEVAX does not contain any live bacteria or viruses and it cannot
cause any of the infectious diseases
against which it protects.
Remember that no vaccine can provide complete, life long protection in
all people who are vaccinated.
