Hello, thank you for reaching out to us!
We understand you are allergic to paracetamol, NSAIDs and painkillers, and you’re wondering if you’d be able to take Covid-19 vaccine.
According to the recent clinical guidelines, there has been no contraindication for those who are allergic to painkillers to receive Covid-19 vaccine. However, since you have multiple drug allergies, it is best to check with your doctor or a specialist before taking the vaccine, especially if you have history of severe anaphylaxis reaction requiring hospital admission.
