Question
What should be done if a newborn develops jaundice during the administration of the second dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine?
Answer
If a newborn experiences jaundice during the administration of the second dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine, it may be a symptom of abnormal liver function, and it is not recommended to administer the vaccine at this time. Medications such as Yinzhihuang Granules can be prescribed for treatment, and the vaccine can be scheduled again after the jaundice symptoms have subsided. Parents should closely monitor their child’s condition changes and provide timely symptomatic treatment to help the child recover quickly.
