How Poliomyelitis Products work
Polio Vaccine contains inactivated (killed) viruses of all three poliovirus types (I, II & III).

In the event of infection, these antibodies prevent the spread of the virus to the brain and protect against paralysis.

Frequently asked questions about Poliomyelitis Products
Frequently asked questions about Polio Vaccine
Q. When should Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine be given?
Children are usually advised 4 doses of Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine. The first dose is given at age of 2 months and then the next doses are given at 4 months, 6–18 months and 4–6 years, respectively. However, sometimes Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine is given in a combination vaccine along with other vaccines. In this case, a child might receive a fifth dose of Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine.
Q. What is Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine used for?
Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine contains live attenuated poliovirus (strain types 1 and 3) and is intended for polio prophylaxis in infants 6-12 weeks of age, all unimmunized children up to 18 years of age and high-risk adults. Adults, however, should receive the inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV).
Q. What are the different types of polio vaccines?
Polio vaccines are vaccines used to prevent poliomyelitis (polio). There are two types of polio vaccines, one is inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) which is given by injection and the other is weakened oral poliovirus vaccine(OPV) given by mouth.
Q. Is Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine necessary?
Yes, polio virus attacks the nervous system which can lead to paralysis, especially of lower limbs. Therefore, it is important to get Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine as it provides protection against this virus.
Q. Is Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine better than inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV)?
No, IPV is considered more effective than Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine. Although, it is expensive and relatively difficult to administer. It was seen that giving Poliomyelitis Oral Vaccine alone led to more cases of polio when compared to IPV because it is a live form of the virus.
