Covid Booster

Hi, I'm on antibiotics, Co-Amoxiclav, and Cyclizine, for suspected gall bladder inflammation. I finish the course on 1 November and my Covid Booster is booked for 5 November.

Does anyone know if it's OK to have the Covid Booster so soon after finishing antibiotics?

Many thanks.

Antibiotics have no effect on the virus or your immune response to the vaccine.

Of course you should only follow your Dr's advice and inform whoever is administering the vaccine of any health conditions or concerns. Other things may well impact the vaccine and it's efficacy but not antibiotics.

Really hope your gallbladder settles down soon and you start to feel much better.

Ah, that's good to hear, I'll mention it at the vaccination centre. Thank you so much.
