    • The review addresses the gap in adult immunization coverage.

    Purpose:

    • To provide a comprehensive overview of available vaccines for adults.
    • To discuss vaccine composition, administration, and potential side effects.
    • To emphasize the importance of adult immunization and booster doses.

    Summary:

    • This review covers available vaccines, including their composition, dosage, and side effects, with a focus on adult immunization.
    • It highlights the underutilization of vaccines in adults and discusses key vaccines such as tetanus, influenza, pneumococcal, and hepatitis B.
