Mechanism of action
DPT-IPV-Hib is a pentavalent inactivated vaccine that contains antigens from five pathogens. It works by presenting these antigens to the immune system, triggering both humoral (antibody-mediated) and cell-mediated immune responses. This primes the immune system to recognize and neutralize these pathogens upon future exposure, providing protection against these five infectious diseases.
