PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
This vaccine is indicated for active immunisation against infection
caused by the hepatitis A virus
in adolescents from 16 years of age and in adults.
The vaccine does not protect against infection caused by hepatitis B,
hepatitis C, or hepatitis E
viruses, or any other known liver pathogens.
Transmission of the hepatitis A virus is usually through the ingestion
of contaminated water or
food. Persons in contact with contaminated subjects are usually
infected through the oro-faecal
route.
The possibility of transmission by blood or by sexual contact
(oral-anal relations) has also been
demonstrated.
This vaccine should be administered in accordance with official
recommendations.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
The recommended dosage for subjects from 16 years of age is 0.5 ml.
The initial protection is obtained after one single injection.

be administered, preferably
between 6 and 12 months after the first vaccination and can be
administered up to 36 months after
the first vaccination (see section 5.1). It is estimated that anti-VHA
antibodies persist several
years (at least 10 years) after the second dose (booster).
This vaccine can also be administered a
