Core Tip	Vaccination is the principal strategy to reduce the morbidity and mortality caused by hepatitis B virus. Vaccinated subjects with an hepatitis B surface antibody titer less than 10 mIU/mL after primary vaccine series are considered “no responders”. There are chronic conditions that are characterized by a poorer response to hepatitis B virus vaccination than healthy subjects. To date it is still unclear how to treat this group of patients at high risk of hepatitis B infection. This review focuses on the use of anti hepatitis B vaccine by intradermal route as alternative to conventional intramuscular vaccine in all non responder patients.
