Hep B Vaccine

[CANDYTREE]

I'm on an 8 week course of Maviret & have been advised that I need a Hep B vaccination. Has anyone else had this while taking Maviret

Hi, I took maviret and no there was no mention of a hepatitis b vaccination, but I have never had that. If one has ever had hep b it's very common to have the vaccination as some of these meds can trigger it off again. 😍

Hi, I've not heard of that before and what navigatinglife says I was told. Maybe they want to give you vaccination incase you catch it in future. Do you think you need to be protected against hep b? If you are at risk then Yeh. Gooduck on your treatment xxx

I was on Harvoni. Didn't have a Hep B vaccination but was told by my consultant that he felt strongly that everyone should be vaccinated against B.

I saw a consultant on the 17 th he said that he will refer me to the team which will take 4 or 5 more weeks he ordered a lot of blood tests again but I am no nearer knowing any details ..things feel a bit more real now and I'm hoping to get the answers soon ..I'm still so angry it's taken so long though x
