Information
VIATIM is a combination vaccine used to provide active immunization against two infectious diseases: hepatitis A and typhoid fever. It is designed for use in individuals aged 16 years and older who are at risk of exposure to these diseases, either through travel to endemic areas or other specific risk factors. The vaccine works by stimulating the body's immune response to produce antibodies against the hepatitis A virus and the bacteria responsible for typhoid fever, Salmonella typhi. Administered via intramuscular injection, VIATIM is typically given in a single dose, with the possibility of booster doses as recommended by healthcare professionals based on ongoing risk of exposure. This vaccine is a convenient option for travelers and individuals seeking protection against these two diseases through a single vaccination.
