Refer to adult dosing
the therapeutic activity of the tick-borne encephalitis vaccine (whole virus, inactivated) may be reduced
Actions and Spectrum
Inactivated vaccines contain killed virus particles and viral proteins. When the vaccine is administered, it stimulates the immune system to recognize these viral components as foreign and mount an immune response.

Contraindication/Caution:
Contraindication:
Caution:
Pregnancy consideration:
Pregnancy category: N/A
Lactation: Excretion into human milk is unknown
Pregnancy Categories:
Category A: well-controlled and Satisfactory studies show no risk to the fetus in the first or later trimester.
Category B: there was no evidence of risk to the fetus in animal studies, and there were not enough studies on pregnant women.
Category C: there was evidence of risk of adverse effects in animal reproduction studies, and no adequate evidence in human studies must take care of potential risks in pregnant women.
Category D: adequate data with sufficient evidence of human fetal risk from various platforms, but despite the potential risk, and used only in emergency cases for potential benefits.
Category X: Drugs listed in this category outweigh the risks over benefits. Hence these categories of drugs need to be avoided by pregnant women.
Category N: There is no data available for the drug under this category.
Pharmacology
When the inactivated vaccine is administered, it triggers the immune system to recognize the viral components as foreign. This recognition leads to the production of antibodies specific to the tick-borne encephalitis virus.
Pharmacodynamics
Tick-borne encephalitis vaccination is the production of antibodies, which are proteins that can specifically recognize and neutralize the tick-borne encephalitis virus.
Pharmacokinetics
Limited information available on ADME.
Administration
Tick-borne encephalitis vaccine is administered via intramuscularly in suspension form.
