What is a vaccine, anyway?
Vaccination, not to mention its boosters, protects us against diseases that can be serious. It stimulates the immune system to create antibodies, as if it had to fight against a microbe. This is how it helps prevent the onset of an infectious disease.2
I'm afraid of the side effects!
These are often benign and transient. You may then feel pain accompanied by pain at the injection site, muscle pain, headaches2 accompanied by a mild fever depending on the type of vaccine.4 Paracetamol-based medications such as Doliprane Tabs can be taken to relieve them.5
How to use Doliprane Tabs correctly?
Doliprane Tabs 1000mg is indicated in adults aged 18 years and above.
In adults, never exceed 1 g per dose and 4 g per day.
Ask your pharmacist for advice. Read the leaflet carefully.
For more information on the warnings and precautions for use of paracetamol,
*INCORRECT USE COULD BE HARMFUL
Don't do!
Do not combine with other medicines containing paracetamol, to avoid any risk of overdose. An overdose of paracetamol can cause irreversible liver damage. 5
*INCORRECT USE COULD BE HARMFUL
And you, are you still vaccinated?
Some people feel that they are not up to date with their vaccinations. Do not hesitate to talk to your doctor if you have any doubts.
Covid-19 is still here, and so is its vaccine.
Even though the crisis is behind us, vaccination and/or booster shots for people at risk remain strongly recommended given the continued circulation of Covid-19.9
In addition, Covid-19 vaccines are effective in preventing serious illness, hospitalization, and death, making them the safest option for avoiding these outcomes.10
And for your next vacation, have you thought about getting vaccinated?
Some destinations may expose you to infectious diseases and require vaccination. To avoid unpleasant last-minute surprises, find out about the recommended vaccinations when preparing for your trip. Consult your doctor before departure so that the vaccine is optimally effective during your stay.11
Long live the winter wind, long live the seasonal flu vaccine
The flu vaccination campaign runs from October to March. It is the best way to combat this highly contagious disease. Its vaccine helps protect those in whom the flu can take the most serious forms.12
To conclude
Vaccines, we think about them for ourselves, but also for others.2
In addition, do not hesitate to consult your doctor to take stock.
