Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Avaxim 160U is used to prevent hepatitis A virus infection in individuals aged 16 years and older. It works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against the virus. Commonly recommended for travelers to regions with high hepatitis A prevalence, as well as for those in close contact with infected individuals or in occupational risk settings.

Side Effects

  • After vaccination, the body gradually builds immunity to hepatitis A over several weeks. Most recipients experience mild, temporary effects such as soreness at the injection site or mild fatigue. These are normal signs the immune system is responding to the vaccine.

Precautions & Warnings

  • Keep Avaxim 160U refrigerated between 2–8°C and avoid freezing. Do not use if the vial is damaged or the liquid appears discolored. Inform your healthcare provider of any allergies, especially to neomycin or previous vaccine components, before receiving the dose.

Avoid Interactions

  • Avaxim 160U may be administered with other vaccines, but separate injection sites are recommended. Immunosuppressive therapies, such as chemotherapy or high-dose steroids, may reduce vaccine effectiveness. Always discuss current medications or health conditions with your healthcare provider before vaccination.
