Is Typhoid Vaccination Safe When Suffering From Hypothyroidism?
My daughter is 14 years old . she is overdue by 1 year for the typhoid vaccine. She had hypothyroidism 2 years ago and is on Thyrox 75mg 6 days a week. The T3, T4 , TSH levels are normal . Is is safe for her to take the thyroid vaccine . After getting to know about the hypothyroidism at the same time she had glands in her neck after a bad tonsillitis . These glands disappeared after about 5 - 6 months.This was 2 years ago . One month ago she got dengue and had recovered from it . Keeping all this in mind is it safe to give the thyroid vaccine.

Hi Dear
welcome to the HCM,
Yes! Typhoid shot can be taken along with the hypothyroidism. There is no absolute contraindication,
Hope the query is answered.
Thanks
