Bharat Biotech once again becomes the first Indian vaccine manufacturer to successfully produce Revac-Bmcf, a thimerosal -free Hepatitis B Vaccine and usher in an era of preferred vaccines. A thimerosal -free hepatitis vaccine is preferred choice of pediatricians for birth dose vaccination of new born babies within 12 hours of birth. The launch of Revac-Bmcf (thimerosal -free) at an affordable price by Bharat Biotech will also address the needs of parents and members of the medical fraternity who prefer the use of thimerosal -free vaccines.
