Mechanism of action
DTPa-IPV/Hib is a pentavalent inactivated vaccine containing antigens from five pathogens. The acellular pertussis component (Pa) uses purified bacterial proteins rather than whole cells, reducing reactogenicity while maintaining immunogenicity. The vaccine primes both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses to protect against these five serious infectious diseases.
