Hepavax (Adult) is a vaccine that provides protection against hepatitis B, a viral infection that affects the liver and can cause serious health complications like cirrhosis and liver cancer. The vaccine is typically administered as a series of three doses, given over a six-month period. It is recommended for adults at increased risk of hepatitis B exposure, such as healthcare workers, individuals with chronic health conditions, and those in close contact with infected individuals. Side effects are generally mild and may include soreness at the injection site, fever, or fatigue. Hepavax helps prevent the transmission of hepatitis B and reduces the risk of long-term liver damage.
