Primovaccinatie met
dTp(a) ?
In de bijsluiter wordt de primovaccinatie
met het dTp(a)-vaccin niet vermeld.
Ook de aanbeveling van de Hoge
Gezondheidsraad vermelden daarover
niets.
Een studie uit 2007 onderzocht bij
volwassenen ouder dan 40 jaar die de
voorbije 20 jaar geen tetanus of difterievaccin
hadden gekregen of waarvan de
vaccinatiestatus onbekend was, de efficiëntie
van dTp(a) en dTp(a)-IPV-vaccins.
Eén maand na de toediening van 3 dosissen,
bedroeg het niveau van beschermende
antistoffen 99%.
Bij gebrek aan dT kan dTp(a) dus worden
gebruikt voor primovaccinatie.
Indien ook bescherming tegen polio nodig is,
kan dTp(a)-IPV gebruikt worden
Primovaccination avec le
dTp(a) ?
Ni la notice, ni les recommandations du
Conseil Supérieur de la Santé ne mentionnent
la possibilité d’une primovaccination
avec le dTp(a).
Cependant, une étude publiée en
2007 a montré chez 99% des vaccinés
l’obtention de taux séroprotecteurs
contre le tétanos et la diphtérie après une
primovaccination à l’aide du dTp(a) (3
doses), chez des adultes de plus de 40
ans (en absence de données vaccinales
ou avec un dernier rappel datant de plus
de 20 ans).
En cas d’indisponibilté du dT, par exemple lors
d’une rupture de stock, l’administration du
dTp(a) pourrait donc être utilisé en
primovaccination.
En cas de nécessité d’une protection contre la
poliomyélite, dTp(a)-IPV peut être utilisé,

Results:
• The final study population consisted of
53 patients treated with
• TNFi (n 15),TNFi & MTX (n 21) or MTX (n 17)
months after the 1st dose

Conclusions:
• Two doses of hepatitis A vaccine at a 6month interval provided protection for most
immunosuppressed RA patients.
• A single dose does not seem to afford
sufficient protection to this group of
patients.

• The new vaccine MenAfriVac® is manufactured by
Serum Institute of India Ltd. and was developed for the
meningitis belt through the Meningitis Vaccine Project,
a partnership between WHO and PATH, funded by the
Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
• …… since the introduction of the meningococcal A
conjugate vaccine in countries of the African
meningitis belt in 2010, the WHO noted a decrease in
the number of cases of meningitis; in fact, the
number of cases in 2013 was the lowest recorded
during the epidemic season in the last 10 years
(http://www.who.int/csr/don/2013_06_06_menin/en/).
• In addition, Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A was
noted to be no longer the predominant pathogen.

vaccination were
100% (R/JE-Acc)
and
99% (R-Conv).

As expected, a faster
decrease in RVNA
antibody titers was
observed in
the accelerated group
than in the 2 conventional
schedule groups
(Figure 2A).

Irrespective of
vaccination regimen,
strong short-term
immune responses
up to day 57 were
observed, with
percentages of subjects
with adequate
antibody titers above
95% at all time points in
all groups as soon as 2
weeks after the first
vaccination (Figure 2B).

Japanese encephalitis (Ixiaro®)
• 2013 : Ixiaro from the age of 2 months on
• CISTM 13 Maastricht : “Based on modeled
data, we expect protection to last for at
least 4 years in 95% of vaccinees”
2011
Japanese encephalitis (Ixiaro®)
• The standard scheme requires 2
injections, separated by one month.
Afterwards, the traveler remains boostable
which means that a booster dose can be
given after 12-24 months – (later boosters
? 3-5 years ?)
• When the patient was vaccinated with
Jevax® previously the consensus meeting
gives the advice to use two doses of
Ixiaro® when Jevax® dates from five
years back or more.

Racecadotril Tiorfix
& Aanpak in de eerste lijn van acute diarree bij het kind
RECENTE INFORMATIE OKTOBER 2012
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Racecadotril (Tiorfix®; hoofdstuk 3.6.4.) is een antidiarreïcum dat in het buitenland
gecommercialiseerd is sinds 1993;
het gaat om een inhibitor van de enkefalinasen (enzymen verantwoordelijk voor de
afbraak van bepaalde endogene opioïden, de enkefalines), vooral ter hoogte van de
darmmucosa.
Racecadotril heeft een perifere werking met vermindering van de intestinale
hypersecretie.
De posologie vermeld in de Samenvatting van de Kenmerken van het Product (SKP)
is bij volwassenen 100 mg, gevolgd door 100 mg 3 maal per dag, en bij het kind
ouder dan 3 maanden 1,5 mg/kg, 3 maal per dag.
De voornaamste ongewenste effecten zijn secundaire obstipatie en hoofdpijn.
Racecadotril is gecontra-indiceerd bij aanwezigheid van koorts en bloederige of
slijmerige ontlasting (acute dysenterie).
In de vergelijkende studies met loperamide (een opiaatderivaat en remmer van de
intestinale peristaltiek) hadden beide behandelingen een gelijkaardige
doeltreffendheid, waarbij de diarree-episode slechts met een paar uur verkortte.
Men moet voor ogen houden dat de aanpak van acute diarree vooral gebaseerd is op
rehydratiemaatregelen, en dat antidiarreïca slechts een zeer beperkte plaats hebben,
vooral bij jonge kinderen. De vormen voor gebruik bij kinderen zijn voorschriftplichtig.

Le racécadotril ( Tiorfix®; chapitre 3.6.4.) est un
antidiarrhéique commercialisé à l’étranger depuis ‘93;
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
il s’agit d’un inhibiteur des enképhalinases (des enzymes responsables de la
dégradation de certains opioïdes endogènes, les enképhalines) particulièrement au
niveau de la muqueuse intestinale.
Le racécadotril exerce une activité périphérique en diminuant l’hypersécrétion
intestinale.
La posologie mentionnée dans le Résumé des Caractéristiques du Produit (RCP) est
chez l’adulte de 100 mg suivie de 100 mg 3 x par jour, et chez l’enfant âgé de plus
de 3 mois de 1,5 mg/kg, 3 x par jour.
Ses principaux effets indésirables consistent en de la constipation secondaire et des
céphalées.
Le racécadotril est contre-indiqué en présence de fièvre et de selles glaireuses ou
sanglantes (dysenterie aiguë).
Dans les études comparatives avec le lopéramide (un dérivé des opiacés, freinateur
du transit intestinal), les deux traitements avaient une efficacité comparable, ne
diminuant que de quelques heures l’épisode diarrhéique.
Il faut garder à l’esprit que la prise en charge de la diarrhée aiguë repose avant tout
sur des mesures de réhydratation, et que les antidiarrhéiques n’ont qu’une place très
limitée, en particulier chez les jeunes enfants. Les formes de racécadotril destinées à
l’usage chez l’enfant sont soumises à prescription.

General advice for Mecca pilgrims required/recommended vaccines
• Vaccination with a tetravalent, conjugated ACYW135
meningococcal vaccine is required to obtain a visa.
• Available vaccines in Belgium: Nimenrix® and
Menveo®
• The unconjugated 4-valent meningococcal vaccine is
not available anymore in pharmacy (July 2013) – it
might still be available in the travel clinics and be used
in pilgrims
• It remains unclear if children till the age of 2 years are
obliged to be vaccinated, but it correct to vaccinate
also the little children – on the other hand, see further :
children under 12 yrs are discouraged to come to
Mecca.

2013 = 2014
General advice for Mecca pilgrims required/recommended vaccines
• Incompletely vaccinated individuals should update
their vaccine status.
• Vaccination against the seasonal flu is
recommended when available (around midSeptember, the pilgrimage starts October 4th).
• Pneumococcal vaccine for the known risk groups
• Hepatitis A vaccination is recommended,
depending on age and medical history.
• For journeys exceeding 3 weeks stay, a
vaccination against typhoid fever may be
advisable.
