anti tetanus serum

Yes
No, the anti-rabies vaccine and the anti-tetanus vaccine are not directly associated; they are separate vaccines targeting different diseases. The anti-rabies vaccine is administered following a potential rabies exposure, while the anti-tetanus vaccine is given to prevent tetanus infection. However, in some cases of animal bites, if the patient's tetanus vaccination status is not up to date, a tetanus booster may be given alongside the rabies vaccine as part of the treatment protocol. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific recommendations.
Either can be given to a 3 year old. The anti tetanus serum should be given if there is reason to believe the child has not been immunized against tetanus before and has been exposed. If the child has been immunized, and there is reason to believe that they have been infected, the toxoid should be administered.

prophylaxis and treatment of tetanus
Anti-tetanus serum drugs are the medications which are injected as a vaccine to prevent a person from getting tetanus. The most commonly used drug is called tetanus toxoid.
tetanus can kill, so it's important not to get tetanus.
its called vaccination. Its like a kind of prevention.
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
In my area, tetanus vaccine is given at any time of day.
