Clinical narrative: Blood pressure high; Blood sugar usually is between 115-130 and now last night it has been 168 and higher.; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer (patient). A 75-year-old female patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot# EK9231) via an unspecified route of administration in left arm on 21Jan2021 10:30 at single dose for COVID-19 immunisation, amlodipine besilate (manufacturer unknown) oral from an unspecified date and ongoing at 10 mg twice a day for high blood pressure, insulin human (NOVOLIN R) via an unspecified route of administration from an unspecified date and ongoing as needed (U-100, inject 5 units by sliding scale if blood sugar over 150) for diabetes, clonidine oral from an unspecified date and ongoing at 0.2mg daily, via an unspecified route of administration from an unspecified date to an unspecified date at 0.3 mg daily for high blood pressure, hydrazine oral from an unspecified date and ongoing at 200 mg two times a day (2 tablets by mouth in the morning, 2 tablets by mouth in the evening) for high blood pressure. Medical history included ongoing thyroid nodule and her thyroid was okay and her numbers okay for cholesterol, ongoing dialysis, high blood pressure. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Since taking the vaccine, the past 4-5 days the patient's blood pressure and blood sugar had been out of whack. The patient had said something to her doctors about this because something was going on because she has been having to use her sliding scale insulin when her sugar got to 150. Usually was under 150 and if she went over that she took a shot of insulin if necessary. She had used insulin human more in the past few days at least once a day. The patient had not had to use insulin human in past, it was still almost full. Again, the patient had taken more shots since this Covid than she had had in a whole year. The patient just talked to the kidney doctor and then she was going to the Endocrinologist on Thursday for the first time. They maintain her blood sugar records at dialysis center. Blood sugar usually was between 115-130 and now last night it had been 168 and higher. The patient knew something was not right and it had not been like that for so long. The patient spoke with the dialysis doctor on 01Feb2021 about her blood pressure and they adjusted her medication. The patient clarified her blood pressure had also been high. When she left 01Feb2021 her blood pressure was 168/79 and later that day was 189/70 which was very unusual for her. The other day when she went home it was 136/78. It was the Clonidine that was adjusted was taking 0.1mg, 2 tablets a day to now taking 3 a day. The action taken in response to the events for amlodipine besilate, insulin human, clonidine, hydrazine was dose not changed. The outcome of events was not recovered.  Pfizer is a marketing authorization holder of [Amlodipine Besilate] in the country of incidence or the country where the product was purchased (if different). This may be a duplicate report if another marketing authorization holder of [Amlodipine Besilate] has submitted the same report to the regulatory authorities.
