Section 01

This vaccine is given to protect against tetanus by injecting it into the arm muscle (Deltoid muscle) or under the skin. This vaccine is considered safe during pregnancy, and the side effects associated with it are usually mild and resolve on their own. However, we do not recommend taking this vaccine during pregnancy and breastfeeding, although receiving the vaccine during pregnancy is not a reason to terminate the pregnancy. The expected benefit of receiving the vaccine during pregnancy is weighed against the potential risks. Therefore, a doctor should be consulted before taking the vaccine.
