any info on whether kids can get the H1N1 vaccine while on antibiotics?

My ped said it was fine also. I also called CHOP pharmacy and they said it was fine too if no fever...

I think it is fine because my son had a cold which turned into a sinus infection. They wrote him a prescription for antibiotics and also gave him the booster shot at the same appointment. Said it wasn't a problem.

The DC clinic didn't want to give my husband the vaccine while he was on antibiotics and told him to come back in a week.

It's no longer an issue as he was diagnosed with H1N1 on his last day of antibiotics.

My 4 year old daughter was put on Amoxicillin due to an ear infection. A week later she got the H1N1 vax. Now she is covered head to toe with a rash that resembled chicken pox. Doctor says it's not Chicken pox but an allergic reaction to Amoxicillin. My daughter has taken Amoxicillin before with no side effects. Any thoughts?

If it's like other allergies, sometimes you don't have a visible reaction with the first exposure.
