Sintesi
Live vaccinia vaccine in a patient on immunosuppressive corticosteroids risks progressive vaccinia and other serious complications, along with reduced vaccine response.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Dexamethasone and Smallpox vaccine live are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.
Perché avviene
Glucocorticoid immunosuppression permits uncontrolled replication of live vaccinia virus.
Cosa fare
Avoid in patients on immunosuppressive steroid doses outside of a high-risk exposure scenario where specialist advice weighs the risk. Otherwise delay until steroids are stopped and immune function recovers.
