Who Needs the Paediatric Hep A Vaccine?
How is the Hep A Paediatric Dose Given?
The Hep A paediatric dose is usually given as an injection into the upper arm or thigh. A booster may be recommended after a set period to ensure longer protection. Our pharmacists will advise you on the right schedule for your child.
