The effect lasts for 6 months. Unless you wanted to have continuous protection for tetanus, you do not require repeat injections. Only when there is an injury or cut in your skin you will need to protect yourself. But for some reason if you wanted to have life long protection, approach your local doctor for giving it as a regime
