I have an adult patient with controlled epilepsy who wishes to receive the Tdap vaccine. May I vaccinate him?
Controlled epilepsy is not a contraindication to receipt of Tdap. To access Immunize.org’s table of vaccine contraindications and precautions, go to www.immunize.org/catg.d/p3072a.pdf. CDC also makes this information available at www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/acip-recs/general-recs/contraindications.html.
