What is Vivotif Typhoid vaccine 0.5ml Pre filled syringe and what is it used for?:
IVOTIF is a prescription vaccine you take by mouth to help protect you from typhoid fever. Typhoid fever, which can be a life-threatening disease, is caused by a specific type of bacteria. VIVOTIF is for adults and children more than 6 years of age.
Immunization with VIVOTIF is not routinely recommended for people living in the United States; however, VIVOTIF is recommended for people who are at a higher risk of getting typhoid fever. This includes:
- People who travel to places where typhoid fever is more common
- People who have close contact with someone who has had typhoid fever or is known to be carrying the bacteria that causes it
- People who work in laboratories who could have contact with the bacteria that causes typhoid fever (Salmonella typhi)
VIVOTIF has not been shown to protect against typhoid fever in common source outbreaks, following natural disasters, or in people attending rural summer camps.
Not all people will be fully protected from typhoid fever following vaccination. While you travel to areas where typhoid fever is common, you should take care to ensure the food you eat and water you drink are safe.
VIVOTIF will not protect you from other kinds of Salmonella bacteria besides S. typhi and will not treat typhoid fever if you have been infected.
