How many doses of the Hepatitis A vaccine should children receive for the best protection?

The CDC recommends that your child should receive two doses to provide the best protection. The first dose should be administered between 12 to 23 months of age, and the second dose can be given 6 to 18 months after the first. This will ensure your child receives the best protection against hepatitis.
