The occurrence of additional non-serious events is detailed below.     Concurrent medical conditions included Sulfonamide allergy (Sulfa), Allergy to metals (Nickel), Shellfish allergy, Drug allergy (Nitroglycerin), Hypertension (controlled by medication), Allergy (Surgical glue) and Allergy to chemicals (Nitriles). Concomitant products included CETIRIZINE HYDROCHLORIDE (ZYRTEC [CETIRIZINE HYDROCHLORIDE]) for Allergy, METOPROLOL for Hypertension, FAMOTIDINE (PEPCID AC) and MULTIVITAMINS [VITAMINS NOS] for an unknown indication.    On 30-Dec-2020, the patient received first dose of mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) (Intramuscular) 1 dosage form. On 30-Dec-2020, the patient experienced FEELING HOT (she felt warm, arm got warm), PARAESTHESIA (pins and needlesin arm, opposite arm and crossed into bilateral legs) and NAUSEA (Nausea). On 31-Dec-2020, the patient experienced DYSGEUSIA (Taste metallic), DYSPHAGIA (Swollowing difficult), DRY MOUTH (Dry mouth) and DIARRHOEA (diarrhea). On an unknown date, the patient experienced HYPOAESTHESIA (numbness). The patient was treated with DIPHENHYDRAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE (BENADRYL [DIPHENHYDRAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE]) at a dose of 50 mg.
