12/01/2001 - "Recent innovations have included the 2-dose, 10 mg Recombivax HB regimen for those 11-15 years old and Twinrix, a combination hepatitis A and B vaccine. "
06/01/2010 - "Urban youth, ages 12 to 17 years, at participating Adolescent Medicine Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions Clinical/Research sites were randomized to receive either 2 doses of Recombivax HB (10 microg hepatitis B surface antigen) or Twinrix (20 microg hepatitis B surface antigen and 720 EL.U hepatitis A antigen) at 0 and 24 weeks. "

"

04/01/2001 - "Hoping to increase hepatitis B (HB) vaccination of adolescents, we did the following: 1) studied if modified regimens of the recombinant HB vaccine, Recombivax HB (2 or 3 doses of 5 or 10 microg given over 4 or 6 months), induce protective anti-hepatitis B surface antibody [anti-HBsAb] levels (>/=10 mIU/mL) comparable to the recommended regimen (5 microg at 0 and 1, and 6 months); 2) measured early antibody response after a single dose; and 3) assessed immunologic memory after 2- and 3-dose regimens. "
03/01/2001 - "A total of 2875 infants (<1 year) (95.8%) achieved seroprotection with Engerix B; 701 (88.5%) achieved seroprotection with Recombivax/ HB-Vax II. Hepatitis B vaccination programs using either Engerix B or Recombivax/HB-Vax II can achieve high seroprotective response rates, particularly in childhood and adolescence. "

07/01/1996 - "Two yeast recombinant vaccines were compared: the Russian hepatitis B Combiotech vaccine in a dose of 20 mg and the Recombivax-HB vaccine in a dose of 10 mg manufactured in the USA (Merk, Sharp and Dohme Ltd.). "
10/01/1989 - "Vaccination against hepatitis B: the Heptavax-B and Recombivax-HB vaccines."

06/01/1997 - "COMVAX is well-tolerated by healthy infants and can induce immunity against invasive Hib disease and HBV infection using only three injections compared with six injections if separate courses of monovalent PedvaxHIB and RECOMBIVAX HB are given."
07/01/2001 - "The most frequently (> or = 10%) reported adverse events with the use of either vaccine were pain at the site of injection (38% vs. 41% vs. 20% for the two-dose Hepacare regimen, the three-dose Hepacare regimen, and the three-dose Recombivax-HB regimen, respectively), infections at the site of injection (1% vs. 14% vs. 9%), headache (9% vs. 13% vs. 11%), and nausea (7% vs. 11% vs. 3%).
