Aluminum vaccine adjuvants: are they safe?
Curr Med Chem. 2011;18(17):2630-7.
Authors: Tomljenovic L, Shaw CA.
Abstract:
Aluminum is an experimentally demonstrated neurotoxin and the most commonly used vaccine adjuvant. Despite almost 90 years of widespread use of aluminum adjuvants, medical science’s understanding about their mechanisms of action is still remarkably poor. There is also a concerning scarcity of data on toxicology and pharmacokinetics of these compounds. In spite of this, the notion that aluminum in vaccines is safe appears to be widely accepted.
