Looking to stay protected against serious infections? The DTP vaccination helps guard you against three dangerous diseases in one simple injection. At Norbury Pharmacy, we offer the DTP vaccine in Norbury for adults, teenagers, and children who need protection or a booster.

Whether it is for routine immunisation, school requirements, or catch-up doses, our team is here to support you in a safe and professional setting.

What is the DTP Vaccine?

The DTP vaccination protects against:

  • Diphtheria: A serious throat infection that can cause breathing problems.
  • Tetanus: A painful condition caused by bacteria entering the body through cuts or wounds.
  • Polio: A virus that can lead to permanent muscle weakness or paralysis.

The tetanus-diphtheria-polio vaccine is given as a single injection to protect against all three serious infections. However, some people may need boosters later in life or before certain activities.

Who Needs the DTP Vaccination?

You may need the DTP vaccine if:

  • You missed one or more doses as a child.
  • You are over 14 and need a teenage booster.
  • You are planning to travel to a country where polio is still a risk.
  • You are working in certain jobs or settings where tetanus exposure is more likely.
  • You have had a deep wound or injury and need tetanus protection.

At Norbury Pharmacy, our immunisation experts will assess your vaccination history and guide you on whether you need the tetanus-diphtheria-polio vaccine in Norbury.

Why is the DTP Vaccine Important?

These three illnesses are all serious and can spread or cause long-term damage if you are not protected. These infections are now rare in the UK, but the risk still exists, especially when travelling or after certain injuries.

The DTP vaccination helps your body build immunity so that if you are exposed to the virus or bacteria, your immune system can fight it off.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

When you visit Norbury Pharmacy for your DTP vaccine in Norbury, our pharmacist will:

  • Explain what the vaccine is and why it is needed.
