Gardasil Pre Filled Syringe Of 0.5ml Suspension For Injection
Gardasil 0.5 ML Description
Gardasil vaccine protects from several diseases caused by certain types of the human papillomavirus (HPV). These include cervical cancer, vaginal and vulvar cancers in women, anal cancer, as well as some head and neck cancers. Additionally, it helps prevent genital warts in both men and women. It's important to note that Gardasil may not completely shield everyone, it doesn't guard against diseases caused by different types of human papillomavirus or other non-human papillomavirus disorders.
Vaccination does not eliminate the need for recommended tests for these malignancies. Women should continue to have routine cervical cancer screenings. Pain, swelling, redness, itching, bruising, bleeding, a lump where the shot was administered, and headache, fever, nausea, and dizziness are among the possible side effects. Fainting can occur after taking Gardasil Vaccine. People who faint may fall and injure themselves. As a result, your healthcare provider may instruct you to sit or lie down for 15 minutes after receiving Gardasil Vaccine.
