Patient's question:
Got the hepatitis B vaccine, but after testing, there was still no antibody detected in my body. Is it possible to get infected? What should I pay attention to? First follow-up question: Can children receive a double dose? The pediatric immunization clinic doctor said to get three more shots and see?Doctor's answer:
First and foremost, consider timely reimplantation. Some infants with weaker immunity can develop antibodies through timely reimmunization. Therefore, regularly check antibody levels when they are low. Timely booster immunization can achieve protective effects. Identify the reasons for immune non-response. For example, if the mother is a carrier of hepatitis B virus, it is essential to inform the doctor in advance. This is because the immunization schedule for these infants differs from that of other infants. It is crucial to administer the hepatitis B vaccine to the infant promptly. As long as the baby meets the vaccination criteria, please arrange for vaccination as soon as possible. On one hand, it can provide early immune protection for the infant. On the other hand, the antibody concentration produced by the hepatitis B vaccine decreases with age.
