My baby age is 3 years old. Now she used omnacortil 5 mg Syrup & Atarax solution and fluticasone ointment for heat rashes on back side thighs. Now it was clear. But after stopping this medicine can I go for Mr. Vaccine. What is the period of duration after stop the medicine to live Mr. vaccine. But actually our vacation people told that wait for 7 days after stopping the above medicine. Please clarify the period of duration after stopped medicine for going to Mr. vaccine. actual vaccine date is given on 22 Dec in school. I stopped medicine on 18th. Pls suggest if I go to vaccine it is safe for my baby or not.

You should consult a peditrician.. as steroids suppress the immune system... and in that condition vaccines may harm.

Yes you can take live vaccines but it depends on how long omnacortils duration was! usually 2 weeks off steroids shall be fine but do check with the pediatrician who has started omnacortil and follow him by personally visit to his place. Regards.
