Hello
Is it okay to take the viccine shot while having normal cold(due to allergy)?

[Gernald]

You should be all right as long as it's nothing more than a minor cold.
Though while you're at the doctor you might look into some allergy tablets. They make a world of difference ;-)

Yeah I guess so,I have taked antihistamine drug contiaining,it helped.. but it's sort of annoying to keep taking these pills everyday.. it's feels like 80 years old.
Thanks for replaying anyway !

Once again, Tony, what is the source of your medical info? You have chosen to disagree with a trained medical professional.

I know that when I take my son in for shots they won't vaccinate him for anything if he has a cold of any sort or any virus. But maybe some Dr. Do it differently?

As long as there's no fever and it's a minor cold (in this case allergies) it's not really a problem.
Vaccines are avoided (especially in kids) if they have a severe illness/cold because if there's any sort of reaction to the vaccine and a child/adult is already sick there's no way to tell if the fever is because of the prior illness or the vaccine.

Thank you Gernald. That is good to know!

Thanks, Gernald - but I believed you the first time around. Same rule applies to NY (where Pharmacists can give injections/vaccines).
