A member asked:
I got a varicella vaccine a few days ago and was wondering if i should stop my prenatal vitamins considering many interactions with varivax? also, i want to do a mammogram, is it safe to do? i read about not doing x rays after varivax?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some basics: I would not stop vitamins as any interaction is negligible. I would consider waiting 2-3 wks for the mammogram as any breakout due to the vaccine would appear & resolve by them. Anything you read about x-rays and the vaccine is a myth.
