What is Bevac?
Globally, Bevac is a widely used recombinant Hepatitis B vaccine manufactured by Biological E. Limited. It works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), protecting individuals from liver infections, chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, and liver cancer.

- Dosing Schedules: It is typically administered as a 3-dose series (at 0, 1, and 6 months). For infants, it is often given starting at birth.
- Common Side Effects: Localized soreness, redness, or swelling at the injection site, mild fever, fatigue, and headache.
- Cold Chain Storage: It must be continuously refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C and must never be frozen.
