no.. when you get a vaccine it gives you a little bit of the bacteria from the disease so your body builds an immunity to it. So no, the tetanus vaccine DOES NOT kill tetanus organisms, but deposits tetanus into your body! sounds crazy right?
Yes, there is a specific G code for the tetanus vaccine. The G code for the administration of the tetanus vaccine is G0009, which is used for billing purposes in healthcare settings. It is important to check with the latest coding guidelines or payer requirements, as codes may vary or be updated.
In my area, tetanus vaccine is given at any time of day.

Tetanus-Diphtheria Vaccine
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.
The TT, or tetanus, vaccine, is usually administered as part of the DPT/DT/TT (Dipetheria, Tetanus & Pertussis, and Tetanus) shot, and is intramuscular.
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.
