Guest Guest_efgh Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 Can anyone please tell me if OPV (oral polio vaccine) and DPT (diphteria, pneumonia, tetanus - hope i got it right) contain mercury? In other words, can OPV and DPT trigger tics? My son is due for the same and I would request you to let me know MORE on these two vaccinations.. thanks and would appreciate your help for this.

Jennifer Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 efgh, www.909shot.com has some excellent information. The vaccine issue is quite complex and yes they do contain mercury unless you specifically request thimerisol-free, but then mercury is not the only issue. The book "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Your Child's Immunizations" is an excellent book as well. Before immunizing your child any further research the matter so that your decision can be a fully informed one. Jennifer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
