Tetanus is a neurological disorder characterized by increased muscle tone and spasms, caused by tetanospasmin, a powerful protein toxin produced by Clostridium tetani.
Tetanus usually occurs after a trauma. Wound contamination with soil, animal manure, or rusty metal can cause life-threatening tetanus. Mortalisan lowering therapy with antitoxin neutralizes toxin circulating in the circulation and the wounds that have not bound.
