On 15MAR2004 at 12:00 PM the pt was vaccinated subcutaneously in the right thigh with a first dose of measles virus vaccine live +mumps virus vaccine live+ rubella virus vaccine. Concomitant therapy included vaccination at 12:00 PM on 15MAR2004 with a 4th dose of DTP given IM in the left thigh. The pt experienced watery eyes, rash, wheezing, vomiting and fainting. On follow up it was reported that on 15MAR2004 the pt began with watering eyes and faint rash at 12:20PM and after five minutes the rash was more intense with warmth to touch, more rash, vomiting and wheezing. The pt was not hospitalized. The pt was seen by the doctor and was treated with one dose of epinephrine, oral Benadryl and Xopenex inhaler. The pt recovered on 15MAR204. The nurse reported on follow up that the patient's reaction was considered to be an anaphylactic reaction with an onset of about twenty minutes after vaccination. Follow up information indicated that measles virus vaccine live +mumps virus vaccine live+ rubella virus vaccine was considered to be the primary suspect because the rash started at the measles virus vaccine live +mumps virus vaccine live+ rubella virus vaccine injection site and spread from there. It was reported that the measles virus vaccine live +mumps virus vaccine live+ rubella virus vaccine was the only vaccination given in the child's thigh where the rash started.
