Frequently asked questions about Polio Vaccine
Q. What is Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine used for?
Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine contains live attenuated poliovirus (strain types 1, 2 and 3) and is intended for polio prophylaxis in infants 6-12 weeks of age, all unimmunized children up to 18 years of age and high-risk adults. Adults, however, should receive the inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV).
Q. What are the different types of polio vaccines?
Polio vaccines are vaccines used to prevent poliomyelitis (polio). There are two types of polio vaccines, one is inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) which is given by injection and the other is weakened oral poliovirus vaccine(OPV) given by mouth.
Q. Is Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine necessary?
Yes, polio virus attacks the nervous system which can lead to paralysis, especially of lower limbs. Therefore, it is important to get Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine as it provides protection against this virus.
Q. Is Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine better than inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV)?
No, IPV is considered more effective than Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine. Although, it is expensive and relatively difficult to administer. It was seen that giving Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine alone led to more cases of polio when compared to Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine because it is a live form of the virus. Therefore, in order to prevent polio outbreaks, Bi-OPV Oral Vaccine is the preferred form of polio vaccine.
