Symptom narrative

there is no record of a second dose administered, so caller is not sure if the patient got the second dose at the appropriate time; This non-serious case was reported by a pharmacist via call center representative and described the occurrence of incomplete course of vaccination in a patient who received Herpes zoster (Shingrix) for prophylaxis. Previously administered products included Shingrix (received first dose on 2020). On an unknown date, the patient did not receive the 2nd dose of Shingrix. On an unknown date, an unknown time after receiving Shingrix, the patient experienced incomplete course of vaccination (Verbatim: there is no record of a second dose administered, so caller is not sure if the patient got the second dose at the appropriate time). The outcome of the incomplete course of vaccination was not applicable. Additional Information: GSK Receipt Date: 28-MAR-2025 The pharmacist mentioned that a patient got their first dose of Shingrix on 2020, and patient was sure that they got their second dose, but when they went to the pharmacy, there is no record of a second dose administered, The reporter not sure if the patient got the second dose at the appropriate time which led to incomplete course of vaccination. They thought on administering a dose now (not administered yet, at the moment of the call), but not sure in case they do it, that would be a late second dose or an extra dose. The pharmacist did not have additional details and offered to bring the patient to the line, but since it was also requested Medical Information, agent decided to start providing the Medical Information data since that is exclusively for Healthcare Providers and not for patients, but pharmacist got impatient and decided to only receive information via email and ended the call
