I'm planning to get vaccinated for Covid-19, and I've heard a lot of people mention having fever and body aches afterward. Is it okay to take Dolo 650 either before or after getting the vaccine to help with these symptoms? Also, I'm a bit concerned because my parent is 64 and takes medication for depression. Is the Covid-19 vaccination safe for them?
