How should I use Engerix-B?

This vaccine is for injection into a muscle. It is given by a health care professional.

A copy of Vaccine Information Statements will be given before each vaccination. Read this sheet carefully each time. The sheet may change frequently.

Talk to your pediatrician regarding the use of this medicine in children. While this drug may be prescribed for children as young as newborn for selected conditions, precautions do apply.

Overdosage: If you think you have taken too much of Engerix-B contact a poison control center or emergency room at once. NOTE: Engerix-B is only for you. Do not share Engerix-B with others.

What if I miss a dose?
