Hi,I am Diwashish Biswas (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, My name is Eliza, I was taking the twinrix vaccine and finished my first and second dose. when should I take the third dose? Also, as I had BCG vaccine, my TB result is always showing positive. What should I provide to prove my TB result? I already have my chest x ray, but it is just the image of x-ray with no documentation. Where can I get the documentation or x-ray reading report of previously taken x-ray.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Twinrix is a vaccine against hepatitis A and hepatitis B.
Twinrix is administered on the same traditional schedule as monovalent hepatitis B vaccine: at 0- 1- and 6- months.
Since you have finished with 2 doses, you need to take 3rd dose at 6th month. X-ray image itself can be interpreted by Physician and does not require document support in most cases.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
