Freeze-Dried Live Attenuated Hepatitis A Vaccine (Biovac-A)
How it Works:
Biovac-A is a freeze-dried live attenuated vaccine developed to provide immunization against the Hepatitis A virus. The vaccine functions by introducing a weakened form of the Hepatitis A virus into the body. This weakened virus stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies, preparing the body to defend against future encounters with the virus. Essentially, the vaccine triggers the body’s natural immune response without causing illness, thereby providing immunity to Hepatitis A.
