Clinical narrative: allergic reaction; could not swallow; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 52-year-old female patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, solution for injection), via unspecified route of administration, administered in the left arm in Mar2021 (batch/lot number EP6855 and expiry date unknown) at 52 years of age as dose 1, single for covid-19 immunization at a pharmacy/drug store. The vaccine was not administered at a facility. The patient informed that she thought her 1st dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine was on 25Mar2021 but has her patient card and written on it was 15Mar2021 or 13Mar2021 and she thinks it was 15Mar2021 which was the date of her 1st dose with lot EP6855 and states no expiry date or NDC was written on the card. The patient's medical history and concomitant medications were none. The patient had no additional vaccines administered on same date of the Pfizer suspect. The patient had no prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). The patient informed that she was calling about the Pfizer COVID vaccine and took the 1st dose back in Mar2021 and about 5 hours after she took the vaccine (Mar2021) she experienced allergic reaction and could not swallow that went on all night and she had the vaccine around 6:00 pm (also reported between 5:30 pm and 6:00 pm) and went to sleep and was fine and then at 11:00 to 12:00 at night she couldn't swallow and was up until 4:00 to 5:00 am trying to swallow and resolved in the morning (2021). The patient informed that she wanted to go to the emergency room but did not and her husband would not take her and just looked on the internet. The patient also had no physician office visit. The patient informed that her weight at the time of the Pfizer COVID vaccine (Mar2021) was like 130 pounds and now her weight (2021) was 112 pounds. The patient informed that she did take Tylenol two of them before she went to sleep. The outcome of the event could not swallow was recovered in 2021, while unknown for the other event. The patient's HCP said not to take the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine and said that the reaction could get worse and it has been 4 months since her first dose. The patient wanted to know if she can she take the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine now or was it too late since it has been 4 months since she had the 1st dose. The patient wanted to know for any reports of not being able to swallow and having this allergic reaction 5 hours after getting the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. The patient wanted to know if other people had this reaction right away and she informed that she knew most people know they have the reaction right away. The patient was informed/explained to her that the possible side effects, but no reports found specific to not being able to swallow, 5 hours after the shot. The patient was referred to HCP. The patient informed that now with the delta variant she was afraid she was not vaccinated and asked if she can mix the Pfizer COVID vaccine with a different vaccine.  Follow-up attempts are completed. No further information is expected.
