This should not be a problem, since Hepatitis A is an inactivated vaccine. There are very little data on giving repeat doses of this vaccine following HSCT, since it has only recently become universally recommended. It makes sense to give this vaccine with the other inactivated vaccines, 12 months post-transplant.
