The DT vaccine stands for Diphtheria and Tetanus vaccine. It is designed to protect against diphtheria, a serious bacterial infection affecting the throat, and tetanus, a potentially fatal disease caused by a toxin produced by bacteria that enter the body through wounds. The vaccine is typically administered in childhood as part of routine immunization schedules. It can also be given to adults as a booster to maintain immunity.
The CPT code for the diphtheria and tetanus toxoids vaccine (DT) is 90702. This code is used for the administration of the DT vaccine, which is typically given to children who are not receiving the pertussis component. For billing purposes, it's important to ensure that the correct code is used based on the patient's age and vaccination history.

Yes, the DT (Diphtheria and Tetanus) vaccine can be administered on the same day as the Tetanus Toxoid (TT) vaccine if TT was given mistakenly instead of DT. Vaccines can generally be given on the same day as long as they are not live vaccines and there are no specific contraindications. It's important to document the administration of both vaccines for medical records. Always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

These vaccines are aimed at diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis. In the Netherlands, "DTP" refers to a combination vaccine against diphtheria, tetanus, and poliomyelitis (rather than pertussis).
