vaccin How to Take

Hepatitis A vaccine belongs to the class of medications called vaccines. It is used to prevent infection by hepatitis A. The vaccine contains inactivated hepatitis A virus that is not capable of causing disease, but instead stimulates your body to produce its own protection (antibodies) against the disease. Protection against hepatitis A is usually in place within one month of injection.

Hepatitis A is a serious disease of the liver that is spread most often through infected food or water by the hepatitis A virus. This virus is much more common in areas of the world that have a lower level of sanitation and sewage systems, but can be a problem in other countries as well.

Hepatitis A vaccine will help protect you from this disease when travelling to certain areas of the world, including:

  • Africa
  • Asia (except Japan)
  • parts of the Caribbean
  • Central and South America
  • eastern Europe
  • the Mediterranean basin
  • the Middle East
  • Mexico

The vaccine is also recommended for people who live in areas that have frequent hepatitis A outbreaks or who are at increased risk for infection. These may include:

  • chronic care hospital staff
  • employees and children in daycare centres
  • food handlers
  • health care workers
  • hemophiliacs and other people who receive blood products
  • Indigenous peoples
  • military personnel
  • orphanage staff and residents
  • people engaging in high-risk sexual activity
  • people who eat high-risk foods (e.g., raw shellfish)
  • people who handle primate animals
  • people with chronic liver disease
  • sewage workers
  • staff of mental health care facilities
  • users of illicit injectable drugs
