Product introduction
Cervavac Injection is given as an injection, usually in 2 to 3 doses several months apart. It can be given to males and females between the ages of 9 and 26 years. Complete the full vaccination schedule for maximum benefits. Regular check-ups and screenings, like Pap smears, should still be done to monitor health even after vaccination.
The most common side effects of Cervavac Injection include mild pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site, fever, headache, or dizziness. These effects are usually short-lived and go away on their own. If you experience more serious symptoms such as difficulty breathing, rash, or swelling, contact a doctor immediately. You can reduce mild side effects by resting and staying hydrated after the vaccination.
Before receiving Cervavac Injection, tell your doctor if you are pregnant, have a weakened immune system, or have any allergies. Avoid the vaccine if you have had a severe allergic reaction to any of its ingredients. The vaccine is not a treatment for existing HPV infections or HPV-related diseases. It is also important to continue practicing safe sexual health and attending regular medical check-ups, even after getting vaccinated, as Cervavac Injection does not protect against all HPV types.
Uses of Cervavac Injection
- Prevention of HPV-associated cancers
Benefits of Cervavac Injection
Human papillomavirus (HPV) can cause many cancers, including cervical, vaginal, vulvar, and anal cancers. The vaccine works by stimulating the immune system to create antibodies that protect against these high-risk HPV strains. Early vaccination, especially before exposure to the virus, offers long-term protection and significantly reduces the risk of developing these serious cancers, contributing to better health outcomes. It is normally given between the ages of 9 and 26.
