Mechanism of action

Infanrix hexa is a hexavalent vaccine containing inactivated toxoids and antigens that trigger adaptive immune responses. Prevenar (pneumococcal conjugate vaccine) uses polysaccharide-protein conjugates to enhance immunogenicity against Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes. Rotarix is a live attenuated rotavirus vaccine that induces mucosal and systemic immunity. Together, these vaccines provide protection against multiple pediatric infectious diseases through humoral and cell-mediated immune responses.
