Good Morning,

I am wondering if any clinics have experience using Heplisav-B after having used Engerix-B for PLWH. I am finding many clients without immunity despite the 3 dose series of Engerix, in which case they are receiving another round a 3 doses. Has anyone found that 2 doses of Heplisav is providing better coverage on the first round?

Thank you!

We recently switched to Heplisav-B also, because of data presented at the Ryan White conference last fall.  It was shown to be much better with regards to development of immunity. No real-life results in our clinic yet, though.
