Patient received Prevnar 20 vaccine on 6/6/25 and noted no physical reactions to it in the immediate time after. Patient came to pharmacy today (6/14/25) stating he developed significant redness and itching beginning on 6/12/25 that did not improve with topical cortisone cream. He showed me his right arm which was very red about 4-inch diameter around where he had received the vaccine. He believed the redness to be expanding so I instructed him to promptly go to urgent care. Patient followed up with me and informed me he was given a steroid injection and told he was having a delayed reaction from the vaccine. In addition to the steroid injection, the prescriber sent in famotidine 40 mg to be taken once daily for 7 days.
