Hep A and B Combined Vaccination

Hep A and B Combined Vaccine

The cost of the Adult Vaccine is £85.00

The cost of the Paediatric Vaccine is £50.00

The Vaccine is administered in 3 separate doses.

This Vaccine is recommended to be administered within a £85.00 GP Consultation with comprehensive advice. However, you may wish to have the vaccination only without a consultation which costs £25.00

The 'Hepatitis A & B combined' is a course of three vaccinations. To complete the full course takes six months. Doses are given one month apart and then five months later (so, for example you might have your first dose in January, then the next in February, and the last in July).

Hep A and Hep B should be administered at least 5 weeks before travelling.

We can also check for immunity to Hepatitis B.

MUMS Also offers an accelerated course.

The accelerated course consists of three doses prior to travel and a fourth dose 12 months later to fully complete the course. The second dose is given one week after the first dose and the third dose is given two weeks after the second dose. A fourth dose can be administered 12 months later for full protection. Hep A and Hep B Immunity tests are available at MUMS Solihull to check your immunity levels.

Once you have completed the full course you will be protected against hep A for 25 years and against hep B for 5 years.

If you remain at risk of either disease after your protection runs out you may need a booster.
