Why You'll Love It
Adacel Polio is a vaccine that protects against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and poliomyelitis in people aged 4 years and older. It is used for different purposes: to boost immunity in teenagers and adults, to provide initial protection in children starting from 4 years old, and to protect individuals traveling to areas where these diseases are common. For primary vaccination, a single 0.5 mL dose is given through an injection into the muscle. For booster doses, a single 0.5 mL dose is also given through an injection, preferably in the upper arm muscle. The timing of booster doses should be based on national guidelines and may vary depending on local recommendations and individual health status.
