Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

You had your twinrix vaccination three days ago.

You can safely take your dexamethasone without worrying about any effect on the immunogenic response produced by your body after vaccination.

Sudden stoppage of dexamethasone without a medical supervision can precipitate withdrawal symptoms and can aggravate your problem.

Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.

Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
