Comes in a 10 ds box – 1 dose vials.  For use as an aid in the prevention and treatment of tetanus in animals.  Contains phenol and thimerosal as preservatives. Administration of Tetanus Antitoxin is recommended for use whenever a non-immunized animal, or one whose immune status is unknown, suffers a deep penetrating wound that has or may become contaminated with soil.  It provides quick but short-term protection.
