Infanrix Hexa Pre Filled Syringe Of 0.5ml Powder For Vaccine Description
Infanrix hexa vaccine is a combined vaccine used to provide protection and active primary immunization against six diseases namely diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, polio and influenza. It
helps your child’s body make its own antibodies which protect your child against these diseases. Similar to all vaccines, Infanrix hexa vaccine may not fully protect all children who are vaccinated because immune responses vary from person to person. However, vaccination helps reduce the transmission of diseases in the community by providing immunity.
