Gardisun® is a quadrivalent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine used to prevent infection caused by four high-risk and common types of the virus: 6, 11, 16, and 18. Supplied in pre-filled syringes for intramuscular injection, this vaccine is designed to provide long-term protection against genital warts, precancerous lesions, and cervical cancer. Gardisun® stimulates the body’s immune system to produce specific antibodies against these HPV types, creating a powerful immune barrier against malignant and high-risk viruses.
Gardisun® introduces recombinant HPV proteins to stimulate the immune system and trigger the production of specific antibodies. Key outcomes include:
Preventing the entry of the HPV virus into epithelial cells.
Preventing the occurrence of infection and genital warts.
Inhibiting the development of precancerous cervical lesions.
Significantly reducing the risk of cervical cancer associated with HPV types 16 and 18.
Note: This vaccine is for prevention and is not a treatment for existing infections.
Postpone vaccination during periods of high fever or acute infection.
The individual should remain under observation for several minutes after injection (due to the risk of post-vaccination syncope/fainting).
Do not administer during pregnancy; vaccination may resume after childbirth.
Generally considered safe during lactation, but should be administered under a physician’s advice.
