Validity of Tetanus Vaccine
Thanks in advance for your advise.
I had taken a Tentanus shot on 31st January for a cut and again on 3rd October for another cut (Both 0.5ml). This time doctor has advised me to do the full course for 5 years protection.
Disclosure - I had taken the full course of 5 years at childhood but did not take the booster dose at the end of 5 years for immunity of another 10 years.
Please suggest, I am having anxiety of getting overdose complications.
