Yes, it's safe to take vaccine for you or any other person with seizure disorder. Following precaution you can take Elevated temperature (fever) is a common side effect after getting a vaccine. Fevers have been reported as a side effect after getting the COVID vaccine, because the immune system is reacting to create immunity in the body. Some people with epilepsy have seizures that are triggered by fever. Hence, you can take tab paracetamol 500 mg thrice daily for 2 days after vaccination.
