About Tetanus Immune Globulin.

Tetanus immune globulin is a hyperimmune biologic agent prepared from human plasma containing high titers of antibodies against the exotoxin produced by *Clostridium tetani*.

It confers immediate, temporary passive immunity by binding and neutralizing free, circulating tetanus toxin before it can attach to nerve terminals in the central nervous system.

Clinically, it is primarily indicated for post-exposure prophylaxis following acute, tetanus-prone wounds in individuals with an incomplete or uncertain immunization status, and it is also used as part of the regimen for managing active clinical tetanus.
