Shingrix vaccination, Methotrexate and Adalimumab
I had my first Shingrix vaccination on Wednesday. My MTX and adalimumab injection was due on Thursday. I tried to find out if there were any known issues with taking other medication close to the vaccination date but couldn't find anything. I asked the nurse at the vaccination station but she could only direct me to the leaflet that comes with Shingrix. My vaccination was first thing Wednesday morning and I felt a bit fluey on Wednesday night and Thursday morning but decided to go ahead with my MTX and adalimumab on Thursday. Friday the fatigue I intermittently get with MTX hit with a vengeance and I'm still feeling it badly now. I'm going to ensure that my 2nd Shingrix vaccination will be well spaced away from my MTX day. On a plus side I've slept well this last two nights.
