<h3>What is the purpose of hepatitis B immunoglobulin?</h3>

Patients with HBsAg-positive liver transplants can avoid contracting hepatitis B by receiving injections of hepatitis B immune globulin (human).

In addition, if you have been exposed to the hepatitis B virus, this medication aids in preventing illness.

<h3>When should hepatitis B immunoglobulin be given?</h3>
  • If you take this medication shortly after being exposed to hepatitis B, it will work best.
  • You must take this medication within 14 days if you had sexual encounter with a hepatitis B carrier.
  • Within 24 hours after being exposed to hepatitis B, if you were exposed in any other way, you should start taking this medication.
