Hepatitis A inactivated vaccine is a type of vaccine used to prevent hepatitis A. After administration, it stimulates the body to produce antibodies that protect against infection with the hepatitis A virus. Children typically receive this vaccine between 2 and 4 years of age, whereas adults may be vaccinated regardless of age. Following vaccination, bathing should be avoided for one week.
