Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am an patient, and I am currently 33 weeks pregnant. When is the most appropriate time to get the hepatitis B vaccine?Doctor's answer:
Hello. During the eighth and ninth months of pregnancy, you can receive immune globulin for mother-to-child transmission prevention. After the baby is born, an hepatitis B vaccine should be administered within 6 hours. The vaccination schedule should follow the 0.1.6 protocol (birth, 1 month, and 6 months), which can effectively prevent mother-to-child transmission with a 95% efficacy rate.We are from Beijing People's Liberation Army Hospital No. 261. Currently, drug treatment can only suppress viral replication but cannot eliminate the virus. It generally requires lifelong medication, and may also cause viral mutation and toxic side effects on other organs. Long-term medication also increases the financial burden on patients.
Cell therapy offers better efficacy than drug treatment. It utilizes the patient's own immune cells, without toxic side effects or viral mutation, and can effectively clear hepatitis B virus. You can visit our hospital's website to learn more about cell therapy for hepatitis B, or consult our experts directly.
