Symptom narrative

Patient was given tdap viccine (Boostrix NDC: 58160-0842-52 Lot# 37f34 Exp. 10/24/2027) On 8/5/2025. Patient called the pharmacy on 8/8/2025 to report an allergic reaction. I asked her to come in so I could see an check on it for her. Patient came in, patient's right arm around vaccine area was red and a little hot to the touch and a little swollen. She stated that the rash spread to her neck area. I did see that it did spread to the neck and chest area. I asked if her doctor's office was a wear she said yes and they referred her back to us at the pharmacy. I told her to take Benadryl and apply hydrocortisone to the chest area to help ease symptoms. She did not report any other major symptoms. I did call her the morning of 8/9/2025 to check on her. she was at a bridal shower and said she took Benadryl last night and is feeling better, that the rash is not getting worst. She will keep an eye on it and is aware that if her symptoms get worst to see her provider right away. Tried to report and document this yesterday. Did not go through properly, retrying today 8/9/2025.
