Hi...coming to your query directly -

1. Twinrix Schedule - The second shot is given 30 days after the initial vaccination and the third shot is administered 6 months after the first.

2. Hepatitis B vaccine - The second shot is given 30 days after the initial vaccination and the third shot is administered 6 months after the first. Same as Twinrix.
