SII Q-VAC Vaccine

SII Q-VAC Vaccine is used to prevent tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, and hepatitis B infections in infants aged six weeks and more. Hepatitis B is a liver infection that can cause serious health issues. Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis are bacterial infections affecting the nervous system, respiratory tract, and skin. If left untreated, these diseases can be severe and potentially life-threatening. Vaccination is essential to prevent these infections.

SII Q-VAC Vaccine contains Diphtheria toxoid, Hepatitis B vaccine, Pertussis toxoid, and Tetanus toxoid. SII Q-VAC Vaccine works by giving the body a weakened or inactivated form of the disease-causing agent, which causes the immune system to create antibodies especially to combat that specific disease. This effectively provides immunity without actually causing the illness. Thus, it helps provide immunity or resistance against these infections. The viral vaccine can be an inactivated or killed virus (unable to replicate) or an attenuated/live (the virus cannot cause the disease but can induce an immune response).

A healthcare professional will administer SII Q-VAC Vaccine. Common side effects of SII Q-VAC Vaccine are pain at the injection site or discomfort, redness or swelling at the injection site, fever, drowsiness, irritability, and unusual crying. These side effects are not familiar to everyone and vary individually. If you notice any side effects in your child that are not manageable, please consult your doctor.

Inform your doctor if your child has had febrile convulsions or if your family has a history of convulsions, SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), or allergic reactions to SII Q-VAC Vaccine or any of its components. Also, inform your doctor if your child has liver or kidney impairments. These conditions won't necessarily stop vaccination. However, extra care is needed for children with bleeding disorders or low platelet counts due to a higher risk of bleeding after injection.

SII Q-VAC Vaccine is used to prevent tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, and hepatitis B infections. The detailed uses of SII Q-VAC Vaccine are as follows:

• Prevents tetanus:SII Q-VAC Vaccine helps protect against tetanus, a serious bacterial infection that affects the nerves and muscles.
• Prevents diphtheria:SII Q-VAC Vaccine builds immunity to diphtheria, an infection that can cause severe throat problems and breathing difficulties.
• Prevents pertussis (whooping cough):SII Q-VAC Vaccine protects against whooping cough, a highly contagious respiratory disease.
• Prevents hepatitis B:SII Q-VAC Vaccine stimulates the body to produce antibodies against hepatitis B virus, reducing the risk of liver disease and complications.

• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
• SII Q-VAC Vaccine will be administered by a healthcare professional.
• Do not self-administer.

SII Q-VAC Vaccine contains Diphtheria toxoid, Hepatitis B vaccine, Pertussis toxoid, and Tetanus toxoid. When injected, the viral vaccine exposes the body to a small dose of the virus or its protein, helping to provide immunity or resistance against these diseases. The virus can be inactivated or killed (unable to replicate) or attenuated/live (cannot cause the disease but can induce an immune response).

SII Q-VAC Vaccine should not be given if your child has had an allergic reaction to it or similar vaccines, or experienced neurological problems after a pertussis vaccine. It's also not recommended if your child has a severe infection with a high fever over 38°C, but minor infections like a cold are usually okay after consulting your doctor. Inform your doctor if your child had febrile convulsions or if your family has a history of convulsions, SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), or allergic reactions to SII Q-VAC Vaccine or any of its components. Also inform your doctor if your child had liver or kidney impairments.
