A member asked:
My tooth is open and ready to have few sessions of complicated root canal. i may need to be sedated, have anesthesia or antibiotics, and pain killers. at the same time i would like to get a shot of gardasil-9. would the vaccine be still effective?

Gardasil: The vaccine will remain effective in the context of dental treatment. Make sure both your doc and dentist are aware so that in case you develop side effects they will be recognized and assigned properly.

No problem: Gardasil will not be affected by anesthesia or antibiotics, and visa-versa.
