I’m citing the CDC with the years I gave, so if you got it in the US before 1995, it would have either been a trial or unlicensed version. It was approved for use in the EU in 1991 though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

“Hepatitis A (HepA) vaccines were first licensed for use in the United States in 1995.”

Interestingly, 1995 was the same year the chickenpox vaccine was licensed. I grew up in the “everyone gets chickenpox” days too; in fact, I caught it at only 3 weeks old from my older sister, who caught it at daycare.
