What is Boostrix?

Boostrix is a vaccine that is administered by a syringe. It is used to prevent diphtheria, tetanus toxoids, and pertussis infections. It is normally given to children who are ages six weeks old through the age of six before a child's seventh birthday. Diphtheria is a serious illness that causes a thick layer in the nose, and throat. Sometimes even the airways. It can lead to breathing problems, and eventually even paralysis, heart failure, and death. Tetanus or lockjaw is a disease that causes tightening of the body's muscles. It can eventually lead to the locking of the jaw resulting in the patient not being able to open his or her mouth or swallow. Pertussis or whooping cough is a cough so severe that it interferes with daily activities such as eating, drinking, or breathing. It can last up to weeks and eventually lead to pneumonia, seizures, brain damage, and death. Diphtheria and pertussis can be spread from person to person very easily, while tetanus can enter the body through a cut or a wound. Boostrix is very important to healthcare workers who maintain close contact with babies that are younger than twelve months. Boostrix works by exposing the patient to small doses of bacteria that help to develop the immune system to help ward off diseases. Boostrix is only prescribed to be given in one dose. You should not receive a Boostrix vaccine if you are prone to allergic reactions from vaccines. You should let your doctor know if you have any underlying medical conditions such as a neurological disorder that affects your brain, such as a prolonged seizure or loss of consciousness. Your vaccine may be postponed if you have a history of seizures, a weak immune system, recent bone marrow transplant, or are receiving cancer treatments. You should let your doctor know if you are or plan on becoming pregnant before taking Boostrix vaccine, as the risks involved are unclear and the outcome of your pregnancy will need to be tracked to evaluate the side effects of Boostrix on pregnant women and babies. You should consult with your doctor to weigh the risks and benefits of receiving this Boostrix vaccine.
