Time gap between Pneumonia & Influenza vaccines and Denosumab Injection. Is Denosumab & Zoledronic acid do harm to dental implantation.

Can my mother take Pneumonia vaccine (Pneumovax 23) and Influenza vaccine (Influgen 0.5 ml) seven days before taking Denosumab (Olimab - product of India) injection. She is taking this injection twice in a year i.e on 1st March and 1st September every year.

My second question is should my mother go forward with two different injections i.e. Zoledronic acid and Denosumab in a month' gap? Or else, skip the two injections to be given in 1st Septembe 2020 (Denosumab)and 1st October 2020 (Zolendronic acid) in order to do lower jaw denture implantation by a maxillofacial surgeon.

She takes Olimab - 60 mg/ml (product of India) as Denosumab injection and Stoplos One - 5 mg infustion (product of India) as Zolendronic acid injection.

That's very unusual to be given both Denosumab and Zolendronic acid, usually it's one or the other. I think her GP would be the best person to ask, but alternatively you could phone the ROS helpline: theros.org.uk as they may well be able to advise.
