Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Prevnar 20 Work?

Prevnar 20 works by stimulating the immune system to recognize and fight off specific serotypes of pneumococcal bacteria. The vaccine contains polysaccharides from the bacteria conjugated to a protein carrier, which enhances the immune response. Upon vaccination, the body produces antibodies against the pneumococcal bacteria, providing immunity against infections caused by the covered serotypes.

Common Dosages

  • Intramuscular injection: 0.5 mL

Typical Dosing

  • The standard dosing schedule involves a single dose of Prevnar 20, which may be followed by additional pneumococcal vaccination depending on the individual's health status and previous vaccination history.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Prevention of pneumococcal disease caused by the 20 serotypes of Streptococcus pneumoniae in adults aged 18 years and older and in certain high-risk pediatric populations.
