Td/IPV and dairy allergies

Hi everyone, my son is due his MenACWY and Td/IPV soon at secondary. I was looking into it and it says vaccines with DTaP contain bovine casein in the manufacturing medium.

Has anyone with a dairy allergy child had this with any issue or any information to share? Many thanks

Dairy allergy isn’t a contraindication for either of those vaccines, if that is any help.

If he’s had all his other vaccines with no issues then he’ll be ok with the Td/IPV as it’s a booster, and doesn’t have the pertussis component so isn’t a DTaP vaccine.
