Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has had a series of issues, and I am very concerned, fearing that the condition may worsen. How should neonatal hepatitis B be prevented?Doctor's answer:
When the child was born, they first received the hepatitis B vaccine, and 2 hours later, they received hepatitis B immune globulin. At one month old, they can receive both the hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immune globulin simultaneously, and then receive the hepatitis B vaccine again at six months. The prevention rate is over 95%. It is recommended to check the HBsAg, anti-HBs, anti-HBe, and anti-HBc (HBV-M) around July. The child is troubled by neonatal diseases, so the family must take the child to the hospital for timely medical treatment and avoid blindly using small advertisements for drugs. Rational medication is needed. For parents, it is important to observe the changes in the child's symptoms and do their best to help the child receive timely medical treatment for the disease.
