  Hepatitis B vaccine booster injection refers to the injection of food hepatitis B vaccine when hepatitis B antibody gradually weakens in the body. It can stimulate and increase the level of antibodies in the body, and provide protection to the body again.

  Hepatitis B vaccine booster needles generally have antibodies in the body, but the antibody levels need to be injected when the antibody levels are gradually decreasing, in order to enhance the body''s anti-virus ability, prevent and prevent the infection and replication of hepatitis B virus.

   In general, when the antibody titer of hepatitis B is less than or equal to 10 international units/ml, it is recommended to take a hepatitis B vaccine booster within six months to increase the antibody level and play a role in resisting hepatitis B virus.
