Hepatitis Vaccine

The hepatitis vaccine is an injectable shot that helps protect your body from hepatitis viruses, primarily types A and B, which can cause liver inflammation and serious health issues. The vaccine works by triggering your immune system to recognize and fight the virus if you're exposed in the future, reducing your risk of infection. It's safe, effective, and typically given in a series of doses over a few months. Vaccination is recommended for certain age groups, travelers, healthcare workers, and others at higher risk, providing long-term immunity and helping prevent the spread of hepatitis in the community.
