This is a series of three injections. The first two are a month apart. The third is six months later.

In North America, it is standard to use a total of three doses.If you remain unable to produce antibodies against hepatitis. , they give up on you after the third one. Lol.-----The simple, effective Hepatitis B vaccine is typically a 3-shot series, given at 0, 1, and 6 months. The Hepatitis B vaccine is very safe and has been administered to over 500 million people in the world. Since Hepatitis B causes 80% of liver cancer, the World Health Organization calls the Hepatitis B vaccine the first “anti-cancer” vaccine. This is 95% effective in preventing infants from getting Hepatitis B, even if the mothers are Hepatitis B carriers.=========In Asia, there were some randomized studies that showed the same antibody production for a total of only two shots, so I think they may use the 2 shots series in some countries there.

Three. After which HBVSab should be confirmed to insure you you have a titer. And no booster is needed.
