A member asked:

Is the td/ipv vaccine vegetarian compliant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Td, IPV vaccines: There is a dtap/ipv combined vaccine but not td/ipv. The components of the dtap vaccine are derived from killed diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough) bacteria and ipv, from killed polio virus. All are "vegetarian-compliant".

Dr Villaplana and another doctor agreed
