Warning
Individuals who have experienced severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, following a previous administration of any hepatitis B-containing vaccine or to any component found in Euvax B, including yeast, should not receive this vaccine. Additionally, it is worth mentioning that the tip caps of prefilled syringes contain natural rubber latex, which has the potential to elicit allergic reactions.
