🔹 Indications
Indications and uses Protet-IG is indicated for -
🔹 Pharmacology
Human clostridium tetani toxoid immune globulin prevents tetanus toxoid from damaging tissue and producing the symptoms associated with tetanus. The immune globulin binds to tetanus toxiod, interfering with the normal interaction of the toxoid with human tissue. This prevents the toxoid from invading the nervous system and producing painful muscle spasms as well as autonomic dysfunction. The Clostridium tetani bacterium is killed either via antibiotic treatment of the host's immune system and immune globulin-bound toxoid is likely broken down by phagocytic immune cells.
🔹 Dosage & Administration
Post-exposure prophylaxis of tetanus:
At the same time, 0.5 ml of tetanus vaccine in a different extremity with a separate syringe and complete immunization schedule is required to be administered.
Therapy of clinically manifest tetanus: For adults and children single doses of 3,000 to 6,000 IU (in combination with other appropriate clinical procedures).
- For adults and children single dose of 250 IU should be given. The dose may be increased to 500 IU in case of:
- Infected wounds where surgically appropriate treatment cannot be achieved within 24 hours
- Deep or contaminated wounds with tissue damage and reduced oxygen supply, as well as foreign body injury (e.g., bites, stings or shots)
- Burns, congelations
- Tissue necrosis
- Septicaemic abortion

- Heart and vascular disorders: Cardiovascular reactions particularly if the product is inadvertently injected intravascularly.
🔹 Pregnancy & Lactation

A separate sterile syringe must be used for each patient to prevent the possible transmission of hepatitis B and other infectious diseases.
Should be administered with caution to individuals who have exhibited systemic allergic reactions to immunoglobulin. Epinephrine (0.1~0.5ml, 1:1000) should be available for immediate treatment.
In patients who have severe thrombocytopenia or any coagulation disorder that would contra-indicated intramuscular injection, Protet-IG should be given only if the expected benefits out way the risks.
While administering Protet-IG care should be taken to drawback the plunger of the syringe before injection in order to be certain that the needle is not in blood vessel.
Protet-IG is prepared from human plasma is pasteurized in its bulk condition to reduce the risk of viruses infections but freedom from the risk of unknown viruses (Parvovirus B-19, etc) cannot be assumed. The infused patient is continuously checked for long time after injection.
