My son has cidp and is on mycophenelate morvil and steroids. have had immunisation appointments through for him. is it safe? he's 15 years old.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No live vaccines: Avoid live vaccines while under treatment with immunosuppressants, ask his doctor about the vaccines whether they are live (e.g. MMR vaccine), other vaccines are safe to administer, might not fully benefit from them, but he won't be harmed. His treating doctors are aware, wish you both wellness
