My mom is 55 and has allergies to penicillin and doxycycline. She also has diabetes and high blood pressure and had bypass surgery 10 years ago. Can she safely take the covid vaccines covishield or covaxin? Do these vaccines have any side effects for someone with her allergies and medical history?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For your mom, both Covishield and Covaxin are generally safe, even with her medical conditions. However, it’s crucial to consult her doctor due to her diabetes, hypertension, and allergies, as they may affect vaccine response.
