What is the DTP Vaccine?

The DTP vaccine protects against three infections:

  • Diphtheria

    A serious throat infection that can cause breathing difficulties

  • Tetanus

    A potentially life-threatening infection entering through contaminated wounds

  • Polio

    A viral illness that can cause paralysis

  • While these diseases are now rare in the UK, they are still present in several regions worldwide, which is why boosters are recommended before certain travel.
