Tdap Booster Vaccine in Ottawa
Protect Yourself and Others with the Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis Booster at Centrepointe Medical Consultants
What is the Tdap Booster (Adacel) Vaccine?
The Tdap vaccine is a booster immunization that protects against three serious diseases:
- Tetanus – A painful and potentially fatal infection that causes muscle stiffness and spasms.
- Diphtheria – A bacterial infection that can cause severe throat swelling and heart complications.
- Pertussis (Whooping Cough) – A highly contagious respiratory infection that can cause prolonged coughing fits, especially dangerous for infants.
The Tdap vaccine is an essential booster given in adolescence and adulthood to maintain immunity after the initial childhood DTaP series.
Key Vaccinations and Preventive Measures
Who Needs the Tdap Booster?
Adolescents:
- A single dose at 14–16 years of age as part of the routine Ontario immunization schedule.
Adults:
- Once as an adult and booster, especially important for:
- Healthcare workers
- Individuals who travel frequently
- Those who haven’t received a Tdap as an adult
Pregnant Women:
- One dose during every pregnancy (preferably between weeks 27–32) to protect newborns from pertussis during the first months of life.
Our clinic provides routine and situational Tdap boosters as part of your preventive healthcare plan.
Why the Tdap Booster is Important
Maintain Long-Term Protection
Immunity from the childhood DTaP series wanes over time. Regular Tdap boosters are essential to keep you protected.
Protect Vulnerable Populations
Pertussis can be life-threatening for infants and the elderly. Getting vaccinated helps protect your family and community.
Injury-Related Prevention
Tdap may be required after injuries (e.g., puncture wounds) if your last tetanus booster was more than 5 years ago.
