It's not a series, and perhaps not for teens, but 'The Werewolf of Paris' by Guy Endore is considered a Werewolf classic.

Stephenie Meyer is writing a series about vampires (and to some extent involving werewolves in her plot lines particularly in the second book). The first book Twilight was published last year. And the second book in the series New Moon is releasing either in September or October (I've read both dates on the internet). But other books in the series are in the editing process.
They are young adult books. Twilight is about a girl, Isabella, "Bella" who moves to a new city for her junior year of high school to be with her father after her mother remarries. So it's a vampire book set in a high school. It's a great book.
Another YA writer who writes books about vampires and werewolves is Annette Curtis Klause.
Blood and Chocolate
The Silver Kiss
And there are some Listmania lists for teen vampire/werewolves books. (I've included one link).

I don't know if the books I recommend are suitable for teens.Read the review and make up your mind.
Werehunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.The books in the series are Nightplay,Dragonswan,Stroke of midnight,Unleash the night.These are romance novels.You can read not only about were-wolves but also about were-dragons,were-panthers,were-bears and were-tigers.The heros are handsome,powerful and with a mysterious past.Interesting reading.
Another good series is the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.The books provide an alternate take on vampires.People who are unjustly murdered call upon Artemis(Greek goddess) and she grants them a day to avenge themselves.After that they are recruited to her army to fight against evil.This series is romance based.Best of the series are 'Dance with the devil' and 'Seize the night'.
Dance with the devil by Sherrilyn Kenyon.The following review is taken from Amazon
Zarek was mad, bad and more than a little insane, and now everyone wants him dead. But hey, that was nothing new to this loner. Born the bastard son of a Roman nobleman and a Greek slave, Zarek had known a lifetime of abuse, torture and humiliation.
It takes a very special woman to see past that hostility and find the lost, unloved boy inside. Happily, Astrid is such a woman (or demigoddess, actually). Her empathy, patience and unconditional love make the perfect foil for Zarek's personal demons. They truly are a match made in heaven -- or should I say Mt. Olympus?
Hunter's moon,Moon's web are novels written by Cathy Clamp and C.T. Adams about a werewolf Tony Giodone who is an assassin-for-hire by profession.It is written from Tony's first person POV (point of view).Tony meets his new client, one Suzi Quentin. She wanted someone offed. Well, this is child's play to our boy...um...wolf...Tony. Only she knocks him for a loop when she tells him the name of the person she wants killed - herself!So begins the story.
For a really funny vampire romance books read Argeneau book series by Lynsay Sands.The first one of the lot is 'Single white vampire'.Recluse vampire and novelist Lucern Argeneau finds his lair being invaded by his determined editor Kate.He has to hide the fact that he is a vampire from Kate,partake his daily blood quota and manage his family.His interfering all-vampire family doesn’t make things easier.Infact his mom thinks that Kate is perfectly suitable for him.
Prime vampire novels by Susan Sizemore is interesting.The best of the lot is the 4th book 'Master of Darkness.' Reluctant vampire hunter Eden Faveau thinks Laurent is her new partner in an investigation to take down a local vampire drug ring. Laurent is really a renegade vampire from the Tribe Manticore and he is in the right place at the right time to take advantage of Eden. He needs her computer expertise to hack a laptop that he stole from the Tribe leader, Justinian.

I second the answer about Christopher Pike's series. It is great.
Also, Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake series is amazing.

Try Fredsaberhagen. He normally writes sci-fi, but he has several Dracula books that are excellent. Dracula is still an evil rotten S.0.B., but in these books, he is the good guy.

Amelia Atwater has a very good series. She wrote her first in her mid-teens.
