Effect of Deflazacort on covid vaccine

2021-05-23 15:42:27
I got the covid vaccine on Wednesday. I have seasonal allergies and this time it was pretty severe. I had to take 4 days of Deflazacort 6mg twice a day for 4 days after one week of vaccine. Starting Wednesday the next week. Since this is steroid, does it mean that vaccine first dose effectiveness is now less ? Or one week gap is good enough?
