The DTP Vaccine
One combined booster covering diphtheria, tetanus and polio
A Quick Top-Up Before You Travel
Most people had their DTP course as children, but immunity fades over time. Revaxis is a combined booster covering diphtheria, tetanus and polio in a single injection, recommended if your last dose was more than 10 years ago — commonly around school age. It's especially worth topping up before travel to South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, Eastern Europe or Central Asia.

What Do DTP Vaccines Protect Against?
Three serious diseases, all covered by one combined vaccine
Diphtheria
A bacterial infection that can affect the throat and airway, and in severe cases damage the heart.
Tetanus
Caused by bacteria in soil and entering through wounds, leading to painful muscle spasms and lockjaw.
Polio
A viral infection that can, in rare cases, cause permanent paralysis.
All Covered in One Jab
Revaxis protects against all three with a single combined injection.
Immunity Fades Over Time
Childhood DTP vaccination doesn't last forever — protection gradually wanes, which is why a booster is recommended roughly every 10 years, especially before travel to higher-risk regions.
Do you need a booster?
Recommended if your last DTP dose was over 10 years ago
Adults Overdue a Booster
Most adults were last vaccinated around school age — if that's more than 10 years ago, it's worth topping up before travel.
- Last dose more than 10 years ago
- Unsure of vaccination history

Worth prioritising if you're heading to South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, Eastern Europe or Central Asia.
