Symptom narrative

I administered the Yellow Fever vaccine to and patient on Friday afternoon 07/18/2025. Patient, 6 years old, had an allergic reaction to the YF vaccine and complained to mom of irritated throat and a redness/rash. Symptoms presented 5 minutes after the injection. Mom gave the patient liquid Benadryl, which she had on hand. Patient felt better after Benadryl was given to him by mom. There wasn't a need for us to implement emergency treatment at the pharmacy. Dad later reviewed to me patient is allergic to eggs , which is a contraindication to the Yellow Fever vaccine. Parents were aware of it and had discussed with a specialist prior to consulting travel health. The specialist had approved patient to get the vaccine despite the egg allergy. However, that when they filled out the live consent form, parents did not list egg as an allergy for patient. I followed up with patient that night and next day . Per dad, patient is fine, no concerns stated.

Allergies

Allergic to eggs. Egg allergy not disclosed at time of vaccination
