Does tetanus toxoid dangerous if given in double dose especially in pregnant women?
According to the CDC's Vaccine Information Statement, it is best to be vaccinated as soon as possible after giving birth if you have never received the vaccine. If there is a need for the tetanus vaccine during pregnancy, it is recommended that the "Td" version (Tetanus - diptheria) be given and not the "Tdap" (tetanus-diptheria-pertussis).

What is the difference of tetanus toxoid to anti-tetanus serum?
The best answer I have found relating to the "difference" between toxoid and anti serum or anti toxin revolves more around the reason for application. While both may give the same result, the reason for application of each is quite different. Toxoids are given with a view to preventing or avoiding infection. Anti-toxins and Anti-serums are given in medical emergency when it might otherwise be too late to save a life. So, Toxoid to avoid or Anti-toxin in need of quick fixin! Harvey

Can tetanus injections be given in the butt?
Yes, you can. Any large muscle, such as the upper arm, outer thigh, or gluteus maximus (buttocks) can be used for the intramuscular injections of flu vaccines. However, many people avoid this location for flu shots since the site can be tender and muscles sore for some time after the injection due to local reaction to the injected vaccine. It is easier to avoid hurting the site of injection when it is in the arm instead of the buttocks that could be uncomfortable sitting down.

What happens if you get a tetanus diptheria pertussis shot 3 months since last one?
It's usually OK to receive an extra booster of the tetanus vaccine. This is especially true if you're being treated for an acute injury, such as a deep cut or puncture wound, and you can't recall exactly when you had your last tetanus shot.Vaccination is the best way to prevent tetanus - a serious disease caused by a bacterial toxin that affects the nervous system. Tetanus bacterial spores can enter your body through any cut or scratch. But deep puncture wounds, such as from stepping on a nail, are most susceptible to tetanus infection.An adult who's never been immunized against tetanus should complete the initial tetanus series of three tetanus shots. The first two shots are given at least four weeks apart, and the third shot is given six to 12 months after the second shot. After the initial tetanus series, booster shots are recommended every 10 years. Although getting tetanus shots more frequently generally isn't harmful, it may increase the risk of soreness or redness at the injection site.
What happens if you give an intramuscular injection on cow incorrect?
It depends on what you mean by "incorrect." If you gave a cow an IM injection and injected it in the wrong site, it won't matter. But, if you gave an IM injection under the skin instead or in a blood vessel, it may make the solution you injected less effective than what was instructed on the bottle. Thus, let it be a lesson to you to always read the label and pay attention to where the best injection sites are. Don't dwell on it: just take it as a lesson learned and move on.

Where can you get tetanus bacteria?
Tetanus is caused by the bacterium Clostridium tetani. It is a type of anaerobic bacteria (bacteria that thrives in environments without much oxygen) that can often be found in rust. Examples are rusty nails, barbed wire, etc.. Often, if you are cut by a rusty nail or other sharp object, it is possible for tetanus bacteria (if they exist on the object) to get into your bloodstream, infecting, and releasing the neurotoxin that causes tetanus. Getting a tetanus booster is often the best way to treat this.
