Has anyone had Typhoid, Hepatitis A and B vaccines and Malarial drugs while on Pred ? I know it probably isn't wise, but I am off to India on holiday.
I hope there are no drug interactions.
Hi, glad to tell anything that will help, because this forum has helped me so much. I have never been to any tropical places but I have been on Plaquenil
( sp?) The first time I had PMR from 2008-12 And from 2014- the present. I have had no problems with this drug used as a prednisone sparing agent. I am pretty sure it is used for malaria. I am on 300 mg per day. Good luck and have a great time .Pat
Also just had a repeat DPT vaccine made me feel really fatigued for 2&3 days then I was back to feeling better. Had Hepatitis B vaccine 20 years ago not recently.
There is a clear warning not to take any live vaccines while on pred, due to weaken immune system. I would be very careful with any vaccine. Please check with your Dr on specifics.
