₹662.00₹779.00 (-15%)
Priorix Injections is a combination of Measles, Mumps, and Rubella vaccines that guard against three diseases of infection, including measles, mumps, and rubella. It is an annual vaccination for children in a variety of countries. Measles is a highly infectious virus that can lead to severe complications, such as pneumonia and encephalitis (brain swelling) or even death. Mumps is a viral disease primarily affecting salivary glands, which can cause swelling and pain in the jaw. It may also cause complications such as meningitis (inflammation of the brain’s layers), deafness, and inflammation of the ovaries or testicles. Rubella is a virus that can cause a rash and fever. Although it’s usually an illness that is not severe, it can cause severe effects if pregnant women contract it, as it could lead to congenital rubella syndrome within the unborn baby.
Priorix Injection is considered safe and is well-tolerated. As with all vaccines, It can cause mild adverse effects, such as swelling or pain at the injection site and low-grade fever. It can also cause a skin rash. Rarely do you experience severe side effects. Vaccination Vaccinating against measles, rubella, and mumps is essential for protecting the individual and building herd immunity (immunity for the entire population). Suppose a person experiences an extreme allergy (such as anaphylaxis) due to a previous dose or one or all components. In this scenario, they shouldn’t receive any further doses of vaccine. Patients with severe immunodeficiency, for example, certain kinds of cancers, HIV/AIDS, having low levels of CD4 (type of immune cells), or people who are receiving immunosuppressive treatment such as chemotherapy or high dose steroids, shouldn’t receive the vaccine. If someone has received the blood product and immunoglobulins (antibodies) within the last few months, Priorix Injections could require a delay. Women who are pregnant should not use the medication.
