Hepatitis B Vaccine in BASILDON

About this service at Whitmore Pharmacy - Basildon

Hepatitis B is a viral infection that attacks the liver and can cause both acute illness and life-long chronic liver disease, leading to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). It is transmitted through direct contact with infected blood, semen, and other body fluids—such as through medical or dental procedures with non-sterile equipment, emergency healthcare abroad, tattooing, body piercing, unsterile needle use, and sexual contact. The Hepatitis B vaccine (such as Engerix B) is a recombinant DNA vaccine containing hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). A standard course involves 3 doses (at 0, 1, and 6 months) or an accelerated schedule (0, 7, 21 days with a 12-month booster) for last-minute travellers needing rapid protection.
