Abstract:

Hepatitis B vaccines are not generic products and it cannot be assumed that all such vaccines can be used in reduced doses in order to save costs. Any use of vaccines in an unlicensed manner should only be performed in the context of a study that is approved by the national control authority and appropriate ethical review committees.
