Answer:

Diphtheria, tetanus, and whooping cough are all required immunizations. Their abbreviation is (DTaP). They are given one dose at each of these ages: 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 15 through 18 months, and 4 through 6 years. These immunizations prevent your child from developing a thick coating in the back of the nose or throat from diphtheria that can make it hard to breathe or swallow.
