Name:

Type of vaccine:

6-component combined inactivated vaccine

General overview:

Hexaxim is a multi-component, inactivated, and recombinant vaccine that protects the body against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis B, Haemophilus influenzae type b, and poliomyelitis.

It contains a combination of viral and bacterial toxoids and inactivated components, aimed at triggering an immune response in the body to specific elements in order to fight real infections in the future.

Storage conditions:

• The vaccine must be stored at a temperature between +2°C and +8°C, strictly in a refrigerator;
• Before use, the vaccine's expiration date must be checked, and it should be visually inspected to rule out any discoloration, presence of particles, or other suspicious signs.

The vaccine is provided in a pre-filled syringe, ready for intramuscular injection.

Hexaxim is used as a combined preventive measure, simplifying the vaccination process and reducing the number of individual injections needed.
