Your child’s medicine at a glance
Easyfour-TT Paediatric Vaccine is a vaccine for the active immunization against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and Haemophilus Influenzae type b. It helps stimulate the immune system to produce high levels of protective antibodies against these serious diseases in babies and young children.
In babies, Easyfour-TT Paediatric Vaccine is injected into the thigh muscles. Whereas, in older children, the injection is given into the arm muscle. This injection is to be administered by your child’s doctor only. The first 3 doses of Easyfour-TT Paediatric Vaccine are to be given 4 weeks apart at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age followed by booster doses given when your child turns 15-18 years. Your child’s doctor might prefer rescheduling the vaccine if your child has a more serious illness.
Easyfour-TT Paediatric Vaccine can cause some minor and temporary side effects such as fever, mild crankiness, loss of appetite, tenderness, soreness, redness, and swelling at the injection site. However, these episodes are momentary and subside on their own. If worrisome, do seek the doctor's help.
Talk to your child’s doctor before vaccination if your child has a history of liver problems, kidney problems, blood disorders, birth defects, heart problems, lung problems, severe allergic reactions to any medicine, severe pain or swelling of the limbs, or Guillain-Barré syndrome. You should also consult your doctor before vaccination if your child has ever been in a coma or has had brain or nervous system problems like seizures. This information is important for planning your child’s vaccination schedule.

Quick tips
- Maintain a log of your child’s vaccination history. Be sure to ask for a personal record card or a printed copy of your child’s vaccinations. Whenever your child receives a vaccine, make sure your copy gets updated.
- Babies are born with natural immunity against some diseases, which they get from their mothers and by breastfeeding. But as they grow, this immunity gradually decreases. Easyfour-TT Paediatric Vaccine further enhances their immunity and protects them against vaccine-preventable diseases.
- Vaccines ensure the best protection when given at the right time. India’s National Immunization Schedule has been designed to protect children from birth, and at the ages when they are vulnerable to specific vaccine-preventable diseases.
- The duration of immunity varies with different diseases and different vaccines. Usually, the protection provided by vaccines decreases gradually over time. Neither natural infection nor vaccination may be able to provide lifelong immunity. Therefore, booster doses are sometimes recommended for certain vaccines, at specific ages.

FAQs
What is the Universal Immunization Program?
Universal Immunisation Programme is a vaccination program that is followed in India. Under this program, all infants and children are vaccinated to ensure prevention against many serious life-threatening diseases such as Diphtheria, Pertussis, Tetanus, Polio, Measles, severe form of Childhood Tuberculosis, Hepatitis B, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), and Diarrhea.
Why are vaccinations important in children?
Vaccinations protect your child against serious diseases by stimulating the immune system to create antibodies against certain bacteria or viruses.
How can Easyfour-TT Paediatric Vaccine prevent my child from disease-causing microorganisms?
Vaccines contain either weakened or killed versions of viruses or bacteria, or an antigenic substance prepared from the causative agent, or a synthetic substitute. Once administered in the body by injection, these inactive parts of the vaccine stimulate the immune response to produce “antibodies”, targeting those infectious agents. As a result, your child develops protection against these infections. Each vaccine provides immunity against a particular disease; therefore, many vaccines are administered to children to protect them from many vaccine-preventable diseases.
What if my baby has a cold or fever, or is taking antibiotics? Can he or she still get vaccinated?
Yes. Your child can still get vaccinated if he or she has a mild illness, a low-grade fever, or is taking antibiotics. Vaccination should be delayed only if your child's immunity is severely low or your child is suffering from any systemic illness that leads to low immunity. It is best to talk with your child’s doctor if you have questions.
How do I know when to take my baby in for vaccinations?
Your child’s doctor should let you know when the next doses are due. Usually, Easyfour-TT Paediatric Vaccine is given at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age followed by booster doses for complete protection. If you are not sure, call your child’s doctor to find out when your child should return for vaccinations. Doses cannot be given too close together because this will not allow time for the immunity to build up. On the other hand, you do not want to delay your child’s vaccinations and get behind schedule because, during this time, your child remains unprotected against preventable serious diseases.<br>
What if I miss an appointment? Does my baby have to start the vaccines all over again?
No. If your baby misses some doses, it is not necessary to start over. Your child’s doctor will continue from where your child left off.
How do I keep a track of my child’s vaccination?
In many medical practices, your child’s immunization record is entered into an electronic record-keeping system. You must keep home records too. So be sure to ask for a personal record card or a printed copy of your child’s vaccinations. Always carry your copy of the record to all medical appointments. Whenever your child receives a vaccine, make sure your copy gets updated. Your child will benefit by having an accurate vaccination record throughout his or her life.
What is herd immunity? How do vaccines help achieve it?
Herd immunity is a form of indirect protection from infectious disease. It occurs with some diseases when a sufficient percentage of a population has become immune to an infection, whether through vaccination or previous infections. Herd immunity reduces the likelihood of infection for individuals who lack immunity.
What is the reason that some children suffer from vaccine-preventable disease even though they have been vaccinated against that disease?
Vaccines have been used for decades and have proven to be effective. Like any other medicine, no vaccine is 100% efficacious. The immunity produced by vaccines varies from child to child. There may be children who do not develop sufficient protective immunity against a disease-causing pathogen due to malnutrition, repeated episodes of diarrhea, or individual-specific immune response to a vaccine. These reasons may cause some children to suffer from vaccine-preventable diseases despite receiving the vaccination against them. However, in such cases, the disease is of less severity than in children who have never been vaccinated.
