Twinrix vaccine shots while taking PP
I'm currently taking PP, I'll be done in two weeks and than start my PCT. My PCT consists of Nolva, Rebound Xt and Retain. Now my question is about the Hepatitis a+b vaccine "Twinrix". I will be going to South America for a few weeks so I thought it would be safe to get the vaccine(costs about 135 CAN a shot, if you're a resisdent of a CLSC it's 70). I plan on going with my girlfriend soon to get them. I will ask the Doctor about this but someone might know the answer. I was wondering if taking these supps will affect the shots? Will it interfere with one another? I don't know if it's bad to mix them?? I have the ingredients for Twinrix here:
Twinrix
Hepatitis A Inactivated & Hepatitis B (Recombinant) Vaccine
DESCRIPTION
Twinrix [Hepatitis A Inactivated & Hepatitis B (Recombinant) Vaccine] is a sterile bivalent vaccine containing the antigenic components used in producing Havrix_ (Hepatitis A Vaccine, Inactivated) and Engerix-B_ [Hepatitis B Vaccine (Recombinant)]. Twinrix is a sterile suspension of inactivated hepatitis A virus (strain HM175) propagated in MRC-5 cells, and combined with purified surface antigen of the hepatitis B virus. The purified hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is obtained by culturing genetically engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, which carry the surface antigen gene of the hepatitis B virus, in synthetic media containing inorganic salts, amino acids, dextrose, and vitamins. Bulk preparations of each antigen are adsorbed separately onto aluminum salts and then pooled during formulation. A 1.0 mL dose of vaccine contains not less than 720 ELISA Units of inactivated hepatitis A virus and 20 mcg of recombinant HBsAg protein. One dose of vaccine also contains 0.45 mg of aluminum in the form of aluminum phosphate and aluminum hydroxide as adjuvants, amino acids, 5.0 mg 2-phenoxyethanol as apreservative, sodium chloride, phosphate buffer, polysorbate 20, Water for Injection, traces of formalin (not more than 0.1 mg), a trace amount of thimerosal (< mcg mercury) from the manufacturing process, and residual MRC-5 cellular proteins (not more than 2.5 mcg). Neomycin sulfate, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, is included in the cell growth media; only trace amounts (not more than 20 ng/dose) remain following purification. The manufacturing procedures used to manufacture Twinrix result in a product that contains no more than 5% yeast protein.
Twinrix [Hepatitis A Inactivated & Hepatitis B (Recombinant) Vaccine] is supplied as a sterile suspension for intramuscular administration. The vaccine is ready for use without reconstitution; it must be shaken before administration since a fine white deposit with a clear colorless supernatant may form on storage. After shaking, the vaccine is a slightly turbid white suspension.
Thanks
