I have allergies to some medications. Is it possible for me to receive the COVID-19 vaccine? (Pfizer or Moderna)

Yes, it is possible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine even if you have allergies to certain medications. The only contraindication for receiving the vaccine is a severe allergic reaction to one of its components. The vaccines currently available do not contain common allergens like food proteins, antibiotics, preservatives, or latex. Specific ingredients in each vaccine have been associated with allergic reactions in other products, so it is important to discuss any previous allergic reactions with a healthcare professional before getting vaccinated.
