Prior antihistamine agent successfully impaired cutaneous adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccine

Abstract

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine is positively changing the health crises of this pandemic and is currently essential to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. The vaccine shows high efficacy against the infection and impairs the severity of symptoms. However, this vaccination is associated with concerns, such as vaccine-associated adverse reactions, which are currently highlighted issues for clinicians. We experienced two cases of mild cutaneous adverse reaction following COVID-19 vaccine administration, which was successfully controlled by prior administration of the antihistamine agent fexofenadine 3 days before COVID-19 vaccination for 7 days.
