Does The DPT/DTap Painless Vaccine Cause Fever ?
Hi, Thanks for writing to health care magic. DTwP can cause fever and pain. DTaP is a costlier vaccine and causes less pain and fever compared to DTwp. It is the affordability that is the issue. If paracatemol is prescribed with DTP then the fever can be controlled and it will be not of much problem. Hope this helps Take care.
