Toxoids are inactivated toxins from pathogens. They are used to stimulate the production of antibodies. Though many pathogens are not harmful themselves, the toxins they are produce cause sickness. Toxoids can be used to protect the body against such illnesses. Both tetanus and diphtheria immunization use toxoids.

What is the drug classification of tetanus toxoid?

What does the adsorbed in tetanus toxoid mean?
In the context of tetanus toxoid, "adsorbed" refers to the process of attaching the toxoid to a carrier substance, usually an aluminum salt. This enhances the immune response when the toxoid is administered as a vaccine, as it helps stabilize the toxoid and improve its effectiveness. The adsorbed form prompts a stronger and longer-lasting immune response, making the vaccine more effective in preventing tetanus.

What is the Mechanism of Action in the Tetanus toxoid?
Tetanus toxoid works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against the tetanospasmin toxin produced by Clostridium tetani. When administered as a vaccine, the inactivated toxin (toxoid) prompts the body to recognize and mount an immune response without causing disease. This prepares the immune system to respond quickly and effectively if exposed to the actual toxin in the future. As a result, vaccination with tetanus toxoid helps prevent the onset of tetanus infection.
