Stay healthy with safe vaccine allergy care

Understanding vaccine allergies

A vaccine allergy occurs when the immune system reacts negatively to components within a vaccine. This adverse immune response can vary in severity and may pose complications for individuals with asthma or hypersensitivities to specific vaccine ingredients. Accurate diagnosis and careful management are essential to ensure the safety and well-being of those affected by vaccine allergies.
