How many doses will I need?

Hepatitis A usually needs two doses for longer protection. Hepatitis B needs a course over weeks or months, with a booster in some cases.

Are there side effects?

Most people only get a sore arm, mild fever, headache, or tiredness. These settle within a few days with rest and simple pain relief.

Can I get a combined vaccine?

Yes, a combined hepatitis A and B vaccine is available. It can reduce visits and help you keep to your schedule.

How soon before travel should I book?

Book as early as you can so you complete the course. We can start protection quickly, then plan the remaining doses around your dates.

These vaccines are well studied and widely used. We check your medical history and advise you if there is any reason to delay.

What if I miss a dose?

Come back as soon as possible. You usually do not need to start again, and we will adjust your plan to get you back on track.

Hepatitis protection made simple

Hepatitis A and B are viral infections that affect the liver. Hepatitis A usually spreads through contaminated food or water. Hepatitis B spreads through blood and body fluids. Vaccination helps prevent infection and lowers the chance of serious illness.

You may need these vaccines if you travel, work in healthcare or public services, or have increased risk from your lifestyle or medical needs. Many employers request proof of hepatitis B vaccination for safety. Travellers to some countries benefit from hepatitis A protection.

The hepatitis A vaccine often needs two doses for longer protection. The hepatitis B vaccine is given as a course over several weeks or months. A combined vaccine for A and B is available for convenience. We explain schedules and help plan your course.

Mild side effects are common and short lived. These may include a sore arm, headache, tiredness, or a mild fever. We show you how to reduce discomfort. We also provide reminders and follow up checks so you complete your course on time.

What to look for

Who should consider these vaccines

People who travel to areas with higher hepatitis A risk often benefit. People who work with blood or body fluids should consider hepatitis B. You may also benefit if you have a close contact at risk, or require proof for work or study.
