titers Oct 5, 2005 hi Dr. D--- Hep B vax series given... 2 years after completion of series, titers are Hep B Surf Ab 38.8 H mIU/mL (ref range 0.0-8.9)...I thought I read somewhere that titers have to be over 100. Is 38.8 a vigorous and effective immune response for protective immunity? Thanks. |

 Yes it sure is! Keep it up there! Check again in 5 years or so and consider hep A vaccine too. DTD | ||||||||
