Lymerix, the first vaccine to prevent Lyme disease

February 1999

People will be asking about Lymerix, the first vaccine to prevent Lyme disease.

Lymerix is useful for people age 15 to 70 who spend a lot of time outdoors in areas where Lyme disease is common...primarily the Northeast, upper Midwest, and Pacific coast.

The approved regimen is 3 doses at 0, 1, and 12 months. But giving the third dose SOONER...at 2 or 6 months also seems effective.
