After getting the Tdap vaccine as a preteen or teen, adults need to get a Td (tetanus and diphtheria) booster shot every 10 years to stay protected. For adults who didn't get Tdap as a preteen or teen, the easiest thing to do is to get Tdap instead of their next regular Td booster.
Normally they will ask when the last time you had a tetanus shot was, if it was very recently then they may not do anything else for you. However, if it is over five years then they will most likely give you a booster shot. This should hopefully help stave off any infection.rom that point you will need to ensure that you keep up to date with your tetanus vaccinations. After your first course of shots as a youngster you should be visiting your doctor for a shot which includes tetanus and dipheria at least once every ten years.
