The Hepatitis B vaccine is recommended for all ages, but the ideal schedule depends on the situation:

Infants: Given as part of routine immunization, with the first dose at birth, followed by additional doses at 1–2 months and 6 months.

Children & Adolescents: If not vaccinated as infants, they can receive a catch-up vaccination at any age.

Adults: Recommended for those at higher risk, such as healthcare workers, travelers to high-risk areas, or individuals with certain medical conditions.

If you’re unsure, check with a healthcare provider for the best schedule based on your needs.
