Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Infanrix Hexa Vaccine is a combination vaccine designed to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies against six serious diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), hepatitis B, poliomyelitis, and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). It contains inactivated components, or antigens, from each of these pathogens, which do not cause disease but are sufficient to trigger an immune response. This process helps the body "learn" to recognise and fight these infections if exposed in the future, providing active immunity.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Tell your doctor if your child is already on any medicine or taking any supplements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Your child may develop a fever, feel restless and irritable, experience a loss of appetite, and show pain, swelling, and redness at the injection site.

Infanrix Hexa vaccine can be administered to children who have a minor infection, such as a cold. Consult your child's doctor if your child has a cold before giving this vaccine.
