Hepatitis B Vaccination: What you should know

The Hepatitis B vaccination protects against Hepatitis B, a viral infection that affects the liver and can lead to serious long-term health problems. The virus is spread through contact with infected blood or bodily fluids, including through sexual contact, medical exposure, or from mother to baby at birth.

The vaccine helps your immune system produce protective antibodies, significantly reducing your risk of infection. In the UK, Hepatitis B vaccination is offered on the NHS to certain high‑risk groups, but many people choose a private Hepatitis B vaccine for faster access or specific needs such as travel or employment.

Who is Hepatisis B vaccination suitable for?

Hepatitis B vaccination may be suitable for adults who:
  • Are travelling to parts of the world where Hepatitis B is more common
  • Work in healthcare, social care, emergency services, or laboratory settings
  • Are at occupational risk of contact with blood or bodily fluids
  • Have a partner or household contact with Hepatitis B
  • Want additional protection for personal health reasons

Timing, course & duration of protection

  • Standard course: three doses over 6 months
  • Accelerated course: available in certain situations, such as travel
Your pharmacist will advise on the most appropriate schedule and explain when booster doses may be required.

Safety, side effects & professional oversight

The Hepatitis B vaccine has been widely used in the UK and internationally and has a strong safety record. Like all vaccines, side effects can occur, but these are usually mild and short‑lived.

  • Soreness or redness at the injection site
  • Mild headache or fatigue
  • Slight temperature
Vaccine Price:
£45 each dose (course of two)

Advised to use this local Pharmacy by the Nurse at my GP Practice, for vaccinations in preparation for a trip to Uzbekistan. I can't fault my experience. Best of all was the skill in issuing vaccine painlessly. I barely knew it had been done. The Pharmacist was informative and helpful ...

Both my husband and I visit Ryders Chemist for our vaccinations because, unlike our doctor, they do both Covid and flu vaccinations. They are so lovely and helpful, pleasant and courteous. I wish that the gentleman attending to us was our GP! We would highly recommend anyone to go there ...

Simply excellent service. Great service on vaccinations at the start of 2024 ahead of New Zealand and Australia, then the final booster in February 2025. Friendly, knowledgeable service from Farakh, who is the centre of excellence in the pharmacy. The developing vaccination service is a great asset to the area.
