The Diphtheria, Tetanus & Polio vaccine protects against three serious diseases. Whether for childhood shots, adult boosters, or travel immunisation in Slough, our centre offers full protection in one injection.
At our Slough Travel Clinic, we provide the low-dose Td/IPV vaccine (Revaxis®) for individuals aged 6 years and older. We offer a full childhood DTP vaccine for younger children as part of routine immunisation. Our pharmacists offer tailored vaccinations and travel health advice to keep you and your family safe.
DTP is part of the NHS childhood programme, with boosters every 10 years for adults. It’s important for travellers to high-risk countries.
Call or book online to schedule your DTP vaccination or travel health consultation. Same-day appointments available for urgent needs. For routine childhood immunisations, please contact us to arrange convenient appointment times.
Our pharmacists will assess your vaccination history, review your medical records, and discuss your travel plans or immunisation needs. We'll confirm the DTP vaccine is appropriate for you and answer any questions about the vaccination or side effects.
You’ll receive your DTP vaccination during the appointment. The vaccine is administered intramuscularly in the upper arm (deltoid). For patients with bleeding disorders, a deep subcutaneous injection may be used. We'll provide aftercare advice and, if needed.
The DTP vaccine protects against three distinct but serious infections:
Diphtheria is a highly contagious bacterial infection caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae. The disease produces a toxin that damages the heart, kidneys, and nervous system. It creates a thick coating in the back of the throat that can block airways.
Tetanus, also known as “lockjaw,” is caused by the bacterium Clostridium tetani. It lives in soil, dust, and animal faeces. The bacteria produce a powerful neurotoxin that causes painful muscle spasms and can be fatal if left untreated.
Polio is a viral infection caused by the poliovirus that attacks the nervous system. While most infections are mild or asymptomatic, the virus can cause permanent paralysis or death in severe cases.
The combined DTP vaccine provides comprehensive protection against three serious diseases with a single injection. Thus making it an essential immunisation for children, adults, and travellers.
Why DTP vaccination matters:
The DTP vaccination is recommended for multiple groups. It’s for infants receiving their primary immunisation course to adults requiring booster doses and travellers visiting high-risk regions.
Our clinic provides thorough pre-vaccination assessment. It’s to ensure the DTP vaccine is safe and appropriate for your individual circumstances.
Understanding the symptoms of these three diseases highlights the importance of vaccination. Early recognition and treatment are critical. However, prevention through immunisation remains the most effective strategy.
Symptoms typically appear 2–5 days after infection:
The DTP vaccine is very safe and well-tolerated. Most people experience no side effects or only minor, temporary reactions. The benefits of protection against three serious diseases far outweigh the minimal risks.
