Typbar TCV Vaccine (Vaccination at Home)

What is Typbar TCV Vaccine? 

The Typbar TCV (Typhoid Conjugate Vaccine) provides protection against typhoid fever, a serious infection caused by Salmonella Typhi. It is a conjugate vaccine that uses a harmless carrier protein to strengthen the immune response and offers longer-lasting protection compared to older typhoid vaccines. This vaccine is especially important in areas where typhoid is common and helps prevent severe illness, complications, and hospitalizations. It has been prequalified by the World Health Organization (WHO) and is clinically proven for use in individuals from 6 months to 45 years of age.

Who should get vaccinated?

• Infants aged 6 months and older.
• Children, adolescents, and adults up to 45 years.
• People living in or traveling to typhoid-endemic regions.
• Individuals at higher risk due to poor sanitation or unsafe food and water sources.

Administration (For Adults only):

It will be administered by a qualified healthcare professional. Kindly do not self-administer. A single dose of Typbar TCV Vaccine is recommended to provide effective protection against typhoid fever. Although a single dose provides long-lasting immunity, booster doses may be considered after 3 years depending on risk and medical advice.
