Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Tick-E-Vac is a concentrated vaccine for the prevention of tick-borne encephalitis. It is a purified suspension of the formalin-inactivated TBE virus strain "Sof'in", which is obtained by reproduction in a primary cell culture of chicken embryos and is sorbed on aluminum hydroxide. The immunobiological property of the vaccine is to stimulate the production of cellular and humoral immunity to the TBE virus. After a course of vaccination, consisting of two injections of Mite-E-Vac, the presence of neutralizing antibodies is detected in 90% of those vaccinated.
Indications for use
The use of Mite-E-Vac is indicated for the specific prevention of TBE in the population (children from 1 to 16 years old at a dose of 0.25 ml and persons from 16 years of age and older at a dose of 0.5 ml), which permanently or temporarily lives on enzootic on FE territories.
The temporarily residing contingent includes persons visiting these territories for the purpose of working in summer cottages and garden plots, recreation, tourism and performing certain types of activities (fishing, procurement, expeditionary, geological, prospecting, deratization and disinsection works, hydro reclamation, construction, excavation and relocation soil, work in agriculture, logging, forest clearing and improvement, recreation areas and recreation of the population).
Persons working with TBE virus-containing materials, as well as donors, to obtain specific immunoglobulin, are subject to immunization.
Contraindications

- infectious and non-infectious diseases, the stage of exacerbation of chronic pathologies, including a period of at least 30 days after recovery (remission);
- a history of severe allergic reactions;
- autoimmune diseases;
- bronchial asthma;
- the appearance of a complication or a pronounced reaction (an increase in body temperature above 40 ° C, edema and / or hyperemia in a diameter of more than 8 cm at the site of vaccine administration) during the previous immunization;

- age up to 1 year;
- established allergy to Mite-E-Vac components.

Tick-E-Vak, instructions for use: method and dosage
Tick-E-Vak should not be used intravenously!
The vaccine is administered by intramuscular injection into the deltoid muscle of the shoulder.
Vaccinations are carried out, strictly observing the rules of asepsis and antiseptics, in a specially equipped room, equipped with anti-shock and anti-allergic therapy.
Before opening the ampoule, it is necessary to visually assess its contents for suitability. In the event of a violation of integrity, labeling, the presence of foreign inclusions or an expired shelf life, the drug should be disposed of.
If, after shaking the ampoule, the suspension acquires a homogeneous structure, without any inclusions, then the ampoule can be opened and inoculated.
Due to the existing risk of developing allergic reactions of an immediate type after vaccination, the patient should be under medical supervision for 0.5 hour.
To exclude the presence of contraindications, on the day of the Mite-E-Vac vaccination, the doctor (paramedic) must conduct an examination, measure the patient's body temperature and interview for possible health complaints.
Scheme of preventive vaccination:
- routine vaccination: 1 inoculation dose for persons aged 16 and over is 0.5 ml, 1 inoculation dose of Mite-E-Vac for children from 1 to 16 years old - 0.25 ml. Primary vaccination consists of two doses, which are administered in turn with an interval of 1-7 months, the most optimal period between the first and second vaccinations is 5-7 months (autumn - spring). Vaccinations can be carried out throughout the year, including the epidemic season. The TBE outbreak during the epidemiological season can be visited no earlier than 1/2 month after the second dose of the vaccine;
- emergency vaccination (in the presence of epidemic indications): 0.5 ml for persons from 16 years of age and older and 0.25 ml for children from 1 year to 16 years, twice with an interval of 1/2 month.

It consists of a single injection of Mites-E-Vac at a dose of 0.5 ml - for persons aged 16 and over and at a dose of 0.25 ml - for children from 1 to 16 years old.
Subsequent revaccinations are carried out regularly at intervals of 36 months by a single dose, corresponding to the person's age.
The course of vaccination in donors consists of two doses of 0.5 ml, which are administered at intervals of 5–7 months or three doses of 0.5 ml at intervals of 3-5 weeks between vaccinations. The first scheme is considered the most optimal, providing the best immunization. Revaccination is performed by administering a single dose of 0.5 ml every 6–12 months. The first blood sampling from donors is indicated not earlier than 1 / 2-1 month after the vaccination course.
