The action taken with mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) (Intramuscular) was unknown. The patient has never had a reaction to vaccines or latex.  After waiting in the vaccinating provider's observation area, she felt fine. On the drive home she felt dizzy and a little out of it. Her Epi-Pen had expired. She took Claritin and laid down to see if the reaction would get better or worse. The symptoms got better 2.5-3 hours (3:30-4pm) later. Things were better and she felt fine. She took Claritin for a total of 4 days following the injection. She did contact her healthcare professional, who referred her to an allergist and her appointment with the allergist is pending.
