1. What Boostrix is and what it is used for
Boostrix is a vaccine used as a booster dose in children from 4 years of age, adolescents and adults for the
prevention of three diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough). The vaccine works by stimulating the body
to produce a protection (antibodies) against these diseases.
- Diphtheria:diphtheria leads to disorders especially of the respiratory tract and sometimes of the skin. Generally, the respiratory tract becomes inflamed (swollen) causing serious breathing problems and sometimes leading to suffocation. The bacteria that cause diphtheria also release a toxin (toxic substance) that can cause damage to the nervous system, heart problems and even death.
- Tetanus:tetanus bacteria enter the body following cuts, scratches or skin wounds. Wounds at higher risk of infection are burns, fractures, deep wounds or wounds contaminated with soil, dust, horse manure or wood splinters. The bacteria release a toxin (toxic substance) that can cause muscle stiffness, painful muscle spasms, convulsions and even death. Muscle spasms can be so violent as to cause fractures of the bones of the spine.
- Pertussis(whooping cough): pertussis is a very contagious disease. The disease affects the respiratory tract causing severe repeated coughing fits that can interfere with normal breathing. The cough is often accompanied by a convulsive inspiration, hence the common name of "whooping cough". The cough can last for 1-2 months or more. Pertussis can also cause ear infections, bronchitis that can last a long time, pneumonia, convulsions, brain damage and even death.
None of the ingredients contained in the vaccine can cause diphtheria, tetanus or whooping cough.
The use of Boostrix during pregnancy will help protect your baby from pertussis in the first
months of life before they receive primary immunization.
2. What you need to know before you or your child receive Boostrix
Boostrix must not be given:
- if you or your child have previously had an allergic reaction to Boostrix or to any of the other ingredients in this vaccine (listed in section 6) or to formaldehyde. Signs of an allergic reaction can include itchy, red skin, shortness of breath, swelling of the face or tongue
- if you or your child have previously had an allergic reaction to any other vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus or pertussis (whooping cough)
- if you or your child have experienced problems relating to the nervous system (encephalopathy) within 7 days of a previous vaccination with a pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine
- if you or your child have a severe infection with a high fever (over 38°C). A mild infection does not pose a problem, but you should tell your doctor beforehand
- if you or your child have experienced a temporary reduction in platelets in the blood (which increases the risk of bleeding or bruising) or problems with the brain or nerves after a previous vaccination with a diphtheria and/or tetanus vaccine.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you or your child receive Boostrix:
- if you or your child have experienced health problems after the previous administration of Boostrix or other vaccines against pertussis (whooping cough), especially:
- High fever (over 40°C) within 48 hours of vaccination;
- Collapse or shock within 48 hours of vaccination;
- Persistent crying, lasting 3 hours or more, occurring within 48 hours of vaccination;
- Seizures/convulsions with or without high fever that occur within 3 days of vaccination
- if your child has a progressive or undiagnosed brain disorder or uncontrolled epilepsy. The vaccine should be administered after the disease has been controlled
- if you or your child have bleeding problems or are prone to bruising
- if you or your child are prone to febrile seizures/convulsions or have a family history of similar events
- if you or your child have long-standing problems with the immune system of any kind (including HIV infection). In this case, you or your child may receive Boostrix, but protection against infections after receiving the vaccine may not be comparable to that achieved in children or adults with a normal immune response to infections.
Fainting (especially in adolescents) can occur following, or even before any injection
with a needle. Therefore, inform your doctor or nurse if you or your child have fainted with a
previous injection.
Like all vaccines, Boostrix may not fully protect people who are vaccinated.
Other medicines and Boostrix
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you or your child are taking, have recently taken or
might take any other medicines, or have recently received other vaccinations.
Boostrix can be given at the same time as some other vaccines. A different injection site
will be used for each type of vaccine.
Boostrix may not work as well if you or your child are taking medicines that reduce the effectiveness
of your immune system in fighting infections.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant, suspect you may be pregnant, are planning a pregnancy, or are breastfeeding with
breast milk, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before you are given this vaccine.
It is not known whether Boostrix passes into breast milk. Your doctor will inform you about the possible risks and benefits of
receiving Boostrix while breastfeeding with breast milk.
Driving and using machines
It is unlikely that Boostrix will affect your ability to drive or operate machinery.
Boostrix contains sodium
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg) of sodium per dose, i.e. essentially “sodium-free”.

3. How to use Boostrix
- Boostrix is administered as an intramuscular injection.
- The vaccine should never be administered into blood vessels.
- You or your child will receive a single injection of Boostrix.
- The doctor will check if you or your child have previously received vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus and/or whooping cough.
- Boostrix can be administered in the event of suspected tetanus infection, although further measures will be necessary, such as properly dressing the wound and/or administering tetanus antitoxin, to reduce the risk of developing the disease.
- The doctor will inform you about booster vaccinations.
