Slimming pill after receiving covid 19 vaccine
I’m 34 years old woman married with 2 kids. I’m currently overweight and thinking of taking dietary supplement to reduce weight. My vaccine appointment is on the 24th august. Is it safe to take slimming pills after receiving covid 19 vaccine?

Hello, thank you for your enquiry.
For your information, taking any supplements will not affect the function of Covid19 vaccine, vice versa. You may attend for vaccination as per your appointment.
However, to reduce weight in a healthy way, you are recommended to have a healthy diet, exercise frequently and prevent sedentary lifestyle. You may consume some supplements of your interest but please do not only rely on those supplements.
For more information, you may refer to your doctor or contact us for an online consultation for assistance.
Thank you, we hope our answer has been helpful.
