Whether or not an epileptic can receive the vaccination is determined by how well the patient’s condition is controlled and whether or not there are any allergies to the vaccine. It is also important to closely observe the patient’s reaction after the vaccination. If the epileptic patient is not allergic to the vaccine, does not have fever or poor resistance, and has been taking medication for a long time, and has not had a seizure in the last year, the vaccination can be given if the control is ideal. However, usually patients with epilepsy have a history of allergies, or long-term medication epilepsy control is not ideal and often have seizures. Although treated and controlled, seizures will occur again when they encounter triggering factors, in which case the prophylactic injection should not be given. If a person with epilepsy is given a prophylactic injection, he or she also needs to be observed. If there is a relatively mild reaction, such as pain or low fever, this condition is usually not a big problem. If the reaction is more intense, treatment is needed.
