Hi doctor,I kissed someone who had chronic hepatitis B. So, I put my first hepatitis vaccination immediately, a second vaccination a week later and the third one, two weeks later after the second. Am I protected against hepatitis B?
Hello. Yes, you are protected. Although the booster is not taken, some amount of immunity is provided by vaccination, it is enough to protect. So, it will protect you. Now, the best way to confirm this is by getting immunoglobin titers done and if the titers are adequate, that indicates the complete protection. So, visit the nearby laboratory and ask for hepatitis B immunoglobin titers. Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts. For more information consult a general medicine physician online
