Tetanus, Diphtheria & Polio Vaccines

At Online Chemist, we understand the importance of staying protected against preventable diseases. Tetanus, also known as lockjaw, is a serious bacterial infection that affects the nervous system and can lead to muscle stiffness and even death if left untreated. Fortunately, tetanus is easily preventable with vaccination.

What is Tetanus?

Tetanus is caused by the bacterium Clostridium tetani, which is commonly found in soil, dust, and manure. The bacteria enter the body through cuts, wounds, or puncture injuries, where they produce a toxin that affects the nervous system. Tetanus can cause severe muscle spasms, difficulty swallowing, and even respiratory failure.

Why Get Vaccinated?

Tetanus vaccination is the most effective way to prevent the disease. The tetanus vaccine stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies that neutralise the toxin produced by the bacteria. By getting vaccinated, you not only protect yourself from tetanus but also contribute to community immunity, reducing the spread of the disease to others.

Who Should Get Vaccinated?

Everyone, regardless of age, should be vaccinated against tetanus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends a tetanus booster shot every 10 years for adults to maintain immunity. Additionally, anyone with a deep or dirty wound should receive a tetanus booster if it has been more than five years since their last dose.
