tetanus vaccination

[Carrie]

Good Morning. Hope everyone is out enjoying Labor Day celebrations!

I have a question about tetanus vaccination. We used the one shot Alpha CD product this year for tetanus prevention. We are getting ready to band our calves and have always given a second dose just prior to banding. I'm feeling unsettled about no second dose. Anyone used this product? Do you trust its "one dose' efficacy? Am I just old school and have trouble with change? Thanks for any input!

Tetanus vaccines are cheap, just use the generic CD+T vaccine and give them another round.

You are old school and having trouble with change. The one shot should be fine.

I would be unsettled also... as when did One Shot Alpha CD include tetanus??

I can't find where the label for Alpha CD mentions tetanus at all.

I use Covexin 8 or Cavalry 9 because they include tetanus
