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.

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.

  • Travel to parts of Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Central or South America
  • Healthcare, public services, or emergency work
  • Exposure to blood or needlestick risk
  • Long stays or visiting family abroad
  • Certain medical conditions that increase risk
