Question
My mother has Hepatitis B surface antigen+ , and my baby received the Hepatitis B vaccine and immunoglobulin within 24 hours after birth. When should the next shot be administered?
Answer
Hello, based on your description, since your baby’s mother has Hepatitis B surface antigen+ , it’s good that the baby received the Hepatitis B vaccine and immunoglobulin within 24 hours of birth. This method can effectively prevent the baby from being infected with Hepatitis B. Guidance: The next shot can be administered at the same time as the second Hepatitis B vaccine at the baby’s one-month check-up, along with the immunoglobulin injection.
