Ticovac is a vaccine used to prevent tick-borne encephalitis (TBE), a viral infection transmitted by ticks that can cause inflammation of the brain and spinal cord. This vaccine is recommended for individuals traveling to or living in areas where tick-borne encephalitis is common, such as parts of Europe and Asia. Ticovac provides protection by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against the TBE virus.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Ticovac Work?

Ticovac works by stimulating the body’s immune system to produce antibodies against the tick-borne encephalitis virus. These antibodies help protect against infection if a person is bitten by a tick carrying the virus. The vaccine does not provide immediate protection; a full vaccination series is required for optimal immunity.

Common Dosages

  • Initial dose followed by a second dose 1 to 3 months later.
  • A third dose is given 5 to 12 months after the second dose to complete the primary series.
  • Booster doses are recommended every 3 to 5 years for continued protection in at-risk individuals.

Typical Dosing

  • For adults and children aged 1 year and older: The initial vaccination involves three doses. The first two doses are spaced 1 to 3 months apart, with the third dose given 5 to 12 months after the second dose.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) prevention in individuals aged 1 year and older.


Who Shouldn't Take Ticovac?

  • Known hypersensitivity to any component of the vaccine
  • A history of severe allergic reactions to previous doses of TBE vaccine
  • Acute illness or fever at the time of vaccination (delay vaccination until recovery)


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Complete the full vaccination series to ensure effective protection against tick-borne encephalitis.
  • Booster doses are important for maintaining immunity, especially if you continue to live in or travel to areas where TBE is endemic.
  • Common side effects include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, and fatigue, which typically resolve within a few days.
  • Even after vaccination, continue to use tick prevention measures, such as wearing protective clothing and using tick repellents when outdoors in high-risk areas.


Side Effects of Ticovac

Common Side Effects

  • Pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site
  • Headache
  • Fever
  • Fatigue or tiredness
  • Muscle or joint pain


Uncommon/Severe Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis)
  • Neurological symptoms (very rare)


Risks and Warnings of Ticovac

  • Allergic Reactions: Although rare, severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) can occur. Patients should be monitored for signs of an allergic reaction after receiving the vaccine.
  • Incomplete Protection: No vaccine provides 100% protection. It is important to use additional tick prevention methods even after vaccination, especially in high-risk areas.


Interactions with Ticovac

Common Drug Interactions

  • Immunosuppressive therapy: Patients on immunosuppressive drugs may have a reduced immune response to the vaccine.
  • Other vaccines: Ticovac can be administered alongside other vaccines, but it is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations on timing.


Alternatives to Ticovac

  • Encepur (Tick-Borne Encephalitis Vaccine): Another vaccine for TBE prevention, available in some countries.
  • Tick prevention measures: Using tick repellents, wearing long-sleeved clothing, and avoiding tick-infested areas can also help reduce the risk of infection.
