Subject: what is diff between DTaP and dTap...This doc is confusing me!!!
I have been told by other doc he wants it DTaP
This new doc is being very specific that she wants dTap.
What is difference? Is it a whole different shot?
Thanks
Tdap not DTap
Subject: Tdap not DTap
The new vaccine, called Tdap, is different from the DTaP vaccine currently given to babies and young children. Tdap contains lesser quantities of diphtheria and pertussis proteins; for this reason, Tdap is much less likely than DTaP to cause side effects such as pain, redness and tenderness in adolescents.

She just says Adacel declined --- I think Adacel is a tetanus shot offered to pt.
