However, you shouldn’t take Tylenol before the COVID-19 vaccination!
Adam Brady does not recommend taking Tylenol or other over-the-counter (OTC) meds prior to vaccination or in anticipation of the potential side effects, especially because certain pain relievers could affect the vaccine’s efficacy, producing fewer antibodies.
Even though Anthony Fauci believes Tylenol is not one of the meds that can influence the vaccine’s efficacy, it’s still recommended to avoid it prior to vaccination, just to be sure.
“People are gonna come back and forth and say, ‘Well, it could mute or dampen the immunological response to the vaccine itself.’ I don’t see any biological mechanisms why something like Tylenol would … do that,” Fauci shared with CSBN.
