Rather than delete year 1997 information, we have retained the older list of ingredients below our more current list (2000) for reference.

Data for year 2000

Composition of vaccines

The information here originally appeared in, Homeopathy in Practice Journal. The information was taken from manufacturer's data sheets and which are available in the UK at libraries in the Data Sheet Compendium. "I also don't think vegetarians would be keen to vaccinate their children if they knew about the animal derivatives in the vaccines."

[Note: in the USA The Physicians Desk Reference, often found in public libraries, is a good source of information. The vaccines also come with what are called "Package Inserts" which you may ask for from your doctor. Better yet, check our Inserts page for download links to package inserts.]
