My question is about covid vaccination. My mother is allergic to citric, azithromycin, multivitamins, gabapentin. Can't eat or drink food items like orange, grapes, lemon, soft drinks, etc. Symptoms she faces are redness, itching, dizziness. Please, advise which vaccination is safe for her? Covishield or covaxin?

Dear Mr. lybrate-user, either vaccine is to be given with caution in patients' with allergies. Only patients with severe allergic response (anaphylaxis) should not have the vaccine but others can have the vaccine. Please do mention to the vaccine center doctor about her allergies and share her medical history with them before getting the vaccine. Best wishes.
