GARDASIL®

GARDASIL® is a vaccine that helps protect against diseases caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) — the most common sexually transmitted condition in the United States. It is sold in vials or prefilled syringes and is administered by a licensed medical professional as an injection in the arm. 

GARDASIL® may trigger allergic reactions and severe side effects if administered irresponsibly, so it’s essential to buy the injection from trusted vendors.

GARDASIL® is used to prevent diseases caused by HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52 and 58. It can prevent anal intraepithelial neoplasia (a precancerous condition of the anus) as well as anal cancer. In women, GARDASIL® is used to prevent precancerous lesions and cancer of the cervix, vulva, and vagina. It can also reduce the risk of condyloma acuminata (also called anogenital warts). GARDASIL® does not eliminate the need for vaccine recipients to undergo screening for vulvar, anal, vaginal, and cervical cancers as recommended by doctors. It is also important to note that GARDASIL® is used for prevention, not cure. It does not protect against diseases caused by: 

  • HPV types not covered by the vaccine
  • HPV infection to which a person has been exposed prior to the vaccine

How Does GARDASIL® Work? 

GARDASIL® works by causing the body to produce antibodies against the HPV. All papillomaviruses have a shell (or a capsid) that is made up of proteins called L1 proteins. GARDASIL® contains purified L1 proteins for specific HPV types, which are produced by recombinant DNA technology. The proteins are assembled in virus-like particles (structures that look like HPV), which trigger the body to produce antibodies against the L1 protein.  These virus-like particles in GARDASIL® are not capable of causing infection. But once they enter the body, the immune system can produce antibodies more quickly if it is exposed to the real HPV in the future.  It usually takes the body several weeks after the vaccination to start developing protection and full protection requires completion of the vaccine series.

What Are the Side Effects of GARDASIL®?

GARDASIL® may cause side effects in a few individuals. These are usually mild and disappear within a few days of the injection.  Mild side effects may include: 
  • Redness, itching, swelling, bruising, and pain at the injection site 
  • Fever and headache 
  • Nausea 
  • Dizziness 
  • Fatigue 
In rare cases, severe side effects may occur. These include: 
  • Fainting (sometimes accompanied by seizure-like movements)
  • Muscle weakness
  • Abnormal sensations including tingling in the arms, legs, and upper body
  • Extreme nausea and vomiting
  • Aching muscles (may appear as muscle weakness) 
  • Unusual tiredness or weakness
  • Skin infection (may appear as hot, tender, and red skin)
  • Bleeding or bruising more easily than normal (may appear as purple or red spots visible through the skin) 
  • Swollen glands in the neck, armpit, or groin
  • Confusion
  • Joint pain or painful, swollen joints
  • Chills
GARDASIL® injections may also trigger allergic reactions in individuals hypersensitive to its ingredients or yeast. A very serious allergic reaction to the vaccine is rare but can be identified by symptoms such as rashes, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, and trouble breathing. To reduce the risk of harmful side effects, it’s important to buy GARDASIL® online from trusted sources and administer it responsibly. 

GARDASIL® Dosage

GARDASIL® is administered as a 0.5 ml shot that is usually given in the arm muscle. It can be given as two or three shots. The dosage according to the age is as follows: 
  • 9 to 14 years – GARDASIL® is given using a two-dose or three-dose schedule. For the two-dose schedule, the second shot is given 6 to 12 months after the first shot. For the three-dose schedule, the second and third shots should be given two and six months after the first shot, respectively. 
  • 14 - 45 years – GARDASIL® is given using a three-dose schedule in this age group. The second shot is given two months after the first, and the third shot is given six months after the first. 
These are general dosage recommendations. Specific dosing schedules are determined by the patient’s unique circumstances.

How Is GARDASIL® Stored?

You want to store the vaccine between two and eight degrees Celsius and give it as soon as you take it out of the fridge.  You can also store it at a temperature between 8 and 25 degrees Celsius for up to 72 hours. Make sure to shield it from light and don't let it freeze.
