MUMBAI: Pharma major Zydus Cadila said on Wednesday it has started supplying its Covid-19 vaccine ZyCoV-D to the Centre, nearly six months after it had been authorised for emergency use in the 12 and above age group.
It is a three-dose Plasmid DNA vaccine injected intradermally or in the skin with the painless PharmaJet needle-free system called Tropis. After the first dose, the next two have to be taken on Day 28 and Day 56, the company said. Each jab costs Rs 265 plus Rs 93 for the needle-free applicator, excluding GST.
