If I am allergic to paracetamol, is it safe for me to get a COVID-19 vaccine, and if so, which one should I choose? Also, what is the best medicine to treat a post-vaccine fever, and can I safely take NISE?
Yes, it is entirely safe for you to get any approved COVID-19 vaccine, as none of them contain paracetamol. Since you have a paracetamol allergy, you can manage a post-vaccine fever with ibuprofen, which is a safe generic alternative. You can also take NISE (nimesulide) for fever and pain, provided you do not have any known allergies to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin or ibuprofen. Always stay well-hydrated, rest, and consult your doctor to confirm the safest option and correct dosage for your specific health history.
