Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives, itching, confusion, dizziness, fainting, vomiting, diarrhea, fast heartbeats, wheezing, difficult breathing, swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.

An allergic reaction is more likely to occur within 30 minutes after you receive the vaccine. You will be treated quickly if you have a reaction.

You should not receive another dose if the first shot caused an allergic reaction. Your healthcare provider will determine if you can safely receive the second dose.

Becoming infected with COVID-19 is much more dangerous to your health than receiving this vaccine. Serious side effects other than an allergic reaction may include:

• chest pain, shortness of breath, fast or pounding heartbeats.

Fever may be a normal symptom as your body begins to develop immunity to COVID-19. However, you should call your doctor right away if you have any side effects that concern you.

Common side effects may include:

• fever, chills, swollen glands;

• pain, redness, or swelling where the shot was given;

• nausea, vomiting, not feeling well;

• feeling tired; or

• headache, muscle pain, joint pain.

This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects.

You may also use a smartphone-based program called V-safe to communicate with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) about any health problems you have after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine: www.cdc.gov/vsafe.
