Is tetanus immunoglobulin vaccine?


Healing hearts, one patient at a time.
Tetanus immunoglobulin is a preventive vaccine, mainly used to prevent and treat tetanus, especially for tetanus antitoxin (TAT) allergic reaction. Tetanus toxin has more allergic people and serious symptoms, while tetanus immunoglobulin is not allergic, relatively safe. Tetanus immunoglobulin is prepared by collecting plasma containing high titer tetanus antibody from plasma donors immunized with tetanus vaccine, extracting and inactivating the virus. However, tetanus immunoglobulin is a blood product, although it has been produced by regular manufacturers, but after strict screening and disinfection, it still faces the hidden danger of infectious diseases, although the hidden danger is particularly low. Therefore, after vaccination, attention should be paid to whether there are any abnormal manifestations.
