How Does the BOOSTRIX Vaccine Work?

BOOSTRIX works by stimulating the immune system to produce protective antibodies against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis.

These antibodies:

• Recognise and neutralise pathogens

• Prevent infection or reduce severity

As a booster, it reactivates immune memory, ensuring continued protection from earlier vaccinations.
