  5. Namastey Doctor, I am 28 years of age. I'm have Chronic Asthma by birth. I use Foracort 200mg Inhaler for my Asthma (1 puff every 2 days on an average) and it works for me. Previously, very rarely I also used to take Levolin 10mg if needed alongside the Foracort. My query is : Given my comorbidity and the Inhaler that I use, 1. Is it safe for me to get the Covishield or Covaxin or Sputnik or whichever COVID-19 vaccine that is given to me by the Government? 2. Can I continue to use my Inhaler after I get vaccinated? 3. Can I expect any allergic reaction such as weasing or chest congestion(like during Asthma attack) after I get vaccinated? Request you to kindly clarify. Thank you very much. Thanks, Surya

Patient is advised covishield vaccination intramuscular, 3 doses as complete immunization to the patient. Side-efects like rash,fever,nausea,headache and allergic reactions are fewer side-effects.
