Didn’t know there is a treatment for reaction. Let us know
@LnzyHou
No "particular" treatment. Seems mainly local. Use Benadryl cream and oral, some Tylenol. Watch for other symptoms.
Still better than shingles.
I had zero reactions from Shingrix. My pharmacist was amazed as most folks have some sort of reaction.
Agree ANY reaction better than shingles.
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE Same. Zero reactions from both shots. And not one time have I heard anybody say “Shingles? Oh, it’s not so bad.” All I’ve heard are horror stories about the pain and discomfort.
Pain that can last 4-6 months.
