Comparison of 13 Acellular Pertussis Vaccines: Adverse Reactions

Michael D. Decker, +8 more
- 01 Sep 1995 -

Comparison of 13 Acellular Pertussis Vaccines: Adverse Reactions

Kathryn M. Edwards, +8 more
- 01 Mar 1993 - 
TL;DR: Although there were differences among the acellular vaccines, none was consistently the most or least reactogenic; all were associated with substantially fewer and less severe adverse reactions than a standard commercial whole-cell vaccine.
