A member asked:

How many booster shot have to take for hepatitis b ? i already take 3 dosages do i have to take 1 dosages every 5 years later ?

Dr. Cosme Manzarbeitia answered

Specializes in Surgery

Titters: Will determine your need for booster shots. If your titers are ok, likely you won't need them. You need a blood test to determine this.
