OH THE HORROR !!!!!!!
HPV--Cervarix vaccine side-effects
(Human Papillomavirus Cervarix vaccine)
What are the risks from HPV--Cervarix vaccine?
The HPV Cervarix® vaccine has been in use around the world for several years and has been very safe.
However, any medicine could possibly cause a serious problem, such as a severe allergic reaction. The risk of any vaccine causing a serious injury, or death, is extremely small.
Life-threatening allergic reactions from vaccines are very rare. If they do occur, it would be within a few minutes to a few hours after the vaccination.
Several mild to moderate problems are known to occur with this HPV vaccine. These do not last long and go away on their own.
Reactions where the shot was given
Pain (about 9 people in 10)
Redness or swelling (about 1 person in 2)
Other mild reactions
Fever of 99.5 or higher degrees Fahrenheit (about 1 person in 8)
Headache or fatigue (about 1 person in 2)
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain (about 1 person in 4)
Muscle or joint pain (up to 1 person in 2)
Fainting
Brief fainting spells and related symptoms (such as jerking movements) can happen after any medical procedure, including vaccination. Sitting or lying down for about 15 minutes after a vaccination can help prevent fainting and injuries caused by falls. Tell your doctor if the patient feels dizzy or light-headed, or has vision changes or ringing in the ears.
Like all vaccines, HPV vaccines will continue to be monitored for unusual or severe problems.
