TWINRIX ADULT HEPATITIS A and B ONE SYRINGE

Twinrix Adult One Syringe is a combination vaccine that provides protection against two viral infections: hepatitis A and hepatitis B. It is primarily used for the immunization of adults who are at risk of exposure to these viruses, particularly those traveling to areas where hepatitis A is common or those who may be at risk of hepatitis B due to lifestyle or occupational factors.

The vaccine works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against both hepatitis A and hepatitis B viruses, thereby providing immunity. Twinrix is typically administered as a series of three injections, with the first dose given at a chosen time, the second dose one month later, and the third dose six months after the first. It is an effective preventive measure for individuals who may be exposed to these infections, helping to reduce the incidence of liver disease associated with hepatitis A and B.
