WHAT TRITANRIX HEPB IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Tritanrix HepB is a vaccine used in children to prevent four diseases:
diphtheria, tetanus (lockjaw), pertussis
(whooping cough) and hepatitis B. The vaccine works by causing the
body to produce its own protection
(antibodies) against these diseases.
•
DIPHTHERIA
: Diphtheria mainly affects the airways and sometimes the skin.
Generally the airways
become inflamed (swollen) causing severe breathing difficulties and
sometimes suffocation. The bacteria
also release a toxin (poison), which can cause nerve damage, heart
problems, and even death.
•
TETANUS
(Lockjaw): Tetanus bacteria enter the body through cuts, scratches or
wounds in the skin.
Wounds that are especially prone to infection are burns, fractures,
deep wounds or wounds contaminated
with soil, dust, horse manure/dung or wood splinters. The bacteria
release a toxin (poison), which can
cause muscle stiffness, painful muscle spasms, fits and even death.
The muscle spasms can be strong
enough to cause bone fractures of the spine.
•
PERTUSSIS
(Whooping cough): Pertussis is a hig

(HBV) in infants from 6 weeks onwards (see
section 4.2).
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
_Posology _
The recommended dose is 0.5 ml.
Primary vaccination:
The primary vaccination schedule consists of three doses within the
first six months of life. Where HBV
vaccine is not given at birth, the combined vaccine can be
administered beginning as early as 8 weeks of age.
Where there is
a high endemicity of HBV, the practice to administer HBV vaccine at
birth should be
continued. In these circumstances, vaccination with the combined
vaccine should start at 6 weeks of age.
Three vaccine doses must be administered at intervals of at least 4
weeks.
When Tritanrix HepB is given according to the 6-10-14 weeks schedule,
it is recommended to
administer a dose of HBV vaccine at birth to improve protection.
In the case of children born of known HBV carrier mothers the
immunoprophylactic measures for hepatitis B
should not be modified. This may require separate vaccination with HBV
and DTPw
