Taisho Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as 'the Company') has updated two articles, 'Adult Pertussis' and 'Adult Pertussis Check,' on its health information website 'Taisho Kenko Navi' (https://www.taisho-kenko.com) to reflect the latest information.
These articles were previously published, but due to a nationwide outbreak of pertussis in 2025, many people expressed anxiety and questions, leading to a significant increase in views. In response, we thoroughly reviewed the accuracy and clarity of the information.
At Taisho Kenko Navi, we not only deliver information but also value the continuous refinement of our content in response to consumer interest and societal trends.
While pertussis is often perceived as a 'childhood disease,' it is not uncommon for adults to unknowingly contract it and suffer from a prolonged cough. In this update, we have organized the characteristics of adult pertussis, points of caution, and guidelines for seeking medical attention from a consumer's perspective.
Moving forward, Taisho Kenko Navi will continue to provide reliable and easy-to-understand information on diseases and symptoms that people 'care about' and 'want to know' in their daily lives, while also striving to keep the content up-to-date with changes in medicine and society.
