GeneVac-B Paediatric Injection
Therapeutic Class: Vaccines
Manufacturer: Serum Institute Of India Ltd
GeneVac-B Paediatric Injection is a vaccine that prepares your child’s immune system to fight against the hepatitis B virus. This virus causes a serious liver disease called hepatitis. Immunity against hepatitis B also helps in the prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma in children.
GeneVac-B Paediatric Injection is meant to be given in the muscles of the thigh to infants younger than 1 year. In older children, it may be given in the muscle of the arm. Your child needs at least 3 doses of GeneVac-B Paediatric Injection to be fully protected against the hepatitis B virus. While the first shot can be given within 24 hours of birth, the second shot is given when the child turns 1 to 2 months old (after a minimum gap of 28 days) following the first shot. The final third shot is given between 6 to 18 months of age (at a minimum gap of 16 weeks after the first shot and at least 2 months after the second shot).
The vaccination helps stimulate the immune system and builds up high levels of protection against the hepatitis B virus in babies and young children. Therefore, all three doses are important for your child. Do not skip or miss out on any of the doses as that will render the protection ineffective and leave your child vulnerable to hepatitis infection. GeneVac-B Paediatric Injection is safe to be given as a stand-alone vaccine or along with other vaccines at the same time.
