Description
The Bevac vaccine is used for active immunisation against hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections caused by all known subtypes. It is suitable for use in neonates, infants, children, and adolescents up to 15 years of age who have not yet developed immunity. Immunisation with the Bevac vaccine is expected to help prevent hepatitis D, as hepatitis D (caused by the delta agent) cannot occur without the presence of a hepatitis B infection.
Bevac vaccine must be administered by a healthcare professional. To ensure effectiveness, all doses are required. It may cause injection site reactions, such as redness, swelling, pain, or fever, in some individuals. If these occur, inform your doctor of possible relief methods. Please disclose any medical conditions and medications to your doctor before receiving the vaccination. Pregnant or breastfeeding mothers should seek medical advice before getting the vaccine.

How Does It Work?
Bevac vaccine works by stimulating the body's immune system to produce antibodies against the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). It contains purified HBsAg, which, when administered, triggers an immune response. This response leads to the development of protective anti-HBs antibodies that help prevent infection by neutralizing the hepatitis B virus upon exposure....
