I’ve been on some painkillers medication, I hope it wouldn’t have any effects on covid vaccine?
A good night’s sleep and some exercise before taking the shot is reported to enhance the efficacy of the vaccine. It may not be advisable to use pain killers before getting the vaccine simply because your immunity will be at the peak at this time, and the effect of the vaccine may not be so obvious.
It might diminish the immune system’s response and lower production of antibodies, which block the virus from infecting cells. The fear that it might curb the very immune system response that a vaccine aims to spur led to the recommendation that it should not be taken before taking the shot. Vaccines work by tricking the body into thinking it has a virus and mounting a defense against it.
