Ixiaro®
The use of IXIARO® suspension for injection is indicated for the generation of an active immune response against Japanese encephalitis in adults, adolescents, children and infants aged 2 months and older.
Ixiaro®: Effective protection against Japanese encephalitis
- Ixiaro® is a vaccine against Japanese encephalitis, recommended for people traveling to areas where JEV is present, mainly in Asia. The disease is transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes and can lead to serious neurological complications. Ixiaro® assists the body in producing immunity and protects against this dangerous virus. Vaccination is especially important for those with occupational exposure or planning to stay in at-risk regions.

- In patients aged 18-≤65 years: an accelerated regimen of 2 doses of 0.5 ml 7 days apart may be used.
- Primary vaccination should be completed 1 week before possible exposure to the virus.
- Booster vaccination:
- Adults, adolescents and children 3 years of age and older: In case of possible re-exposure, 1 dose of 0.5 ml 12-24 months after primary vaccination, and in case of permanent exposure to the virus - 12 months after primary vaccination.
- Children aged 14 months to <3 years: 1 dose of 0.25 ml.
- In individuals aged ≥65 years, due to a weaker immune response to vaccination, a booster dose (3rd dose) should be considered before re-exposure to the virus. In adults, the 2nd booster dose should be given 10 years after the 1st booster dose, before potential exposure to the virus.
