A member asked:

Can i take nyquil after 2nd dose of covid shot?

No objective rationale to prevent your use of NyQuil following full vaccination. This OTC symptomatic remedy has no immunological impact and there is no contraindication.

Please discuss with your PCP, especially if you are experiencing any allergic reaction or symptom extending more than 48 hours. Nyquil is not contraindicated but local supportive care may be as effective.
