FAQs
Why should I vaccinate my child with Revac-B Plus Pediatric Vaccine?

Newborns should be given their first hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours of their birth. It is best to rely on vaccinations to help prevent such infections as Prevention is better than cure.
If there is an interruption between doses of Revac-B Plus Pediatric Vaccine, does the vaccine series need to be restarted?
No. The series does not need to be restarted. In case the vaccine series was interrupted after the first dose, the second dose should be administered as soon as possible. The second and third doses should be separated by an interval of at least 8 weeks. If just the third dose got delayed, it should be administered as soon as possible. Consult your child’s doctor in case of any confusion.
Is there any booster dose required after the 3-dose primary series of Revac-B Plus Pediatric Vaccine in children?
Yes, booster doses might be required. It is advised to check for antibody titer level in blood at timely spaced intervals. If the titer level is below the threshold value, a booster dose may be given to raise the levels above the threshold. It is frequently done in children who have kidney disease.
