What is Spikevax? 

The Spikevax COVID-19 vaccine is a COVID-19 vaccine made by the company Moderna. This vaccine can be given to people 12 years of age and older. COVID-19 is a viral infection caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. COVID-19 can cause various symptoms, which can range from mild to life-threatening, including cough, fever, chills, difficulty breathing, fatigue, body aches, headache, sore throat, stuffy or runny nose, loss of taste or smell, and stomach problems like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. 

The 2023-2024 formula is the updated COVID-19 vaccine, which contains updated strains compared to the original vaccine. You can get this vaccine from your health care provider, local health centers, or at a pharmacy (such as various CVS Pharmacy locations). You can usually contact your local pharmacy for an appointment, or check the vaccine finder website.

Before getting Spikevax, tell your healthcare provider or pharmacist about all of your medical conditions, including if you:

• Have any allergies or have had a severe allergic reaction to a COVID vaccine

• Have had myocarditis or pericarditis

• Currently have a fever

• Are immunocompromised

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding

• Have a bleeding disorder

• Take a blood thinner medicine

• Have ever fainted after shots

• Have received any other COVID vaccines

What are the side effects of Spikevax?

Common side effects of Spikevax include injection site reactions (such as redness, pain, tenderness, and swelling), fatigue, headache, muscle or joint pain, chills, nausea and vomiting, and swelling and tenderness in the armpit.

These heart complications are very rare, and most commonly have occurred in males 18-24 years of age. However, be alert to chest pain, shortness of breath, or feeling like the heart is beating fast, fluttering, or pounding. If you have any of these symptoms (which generally occur in the two weeks after getting the vaccine), get emergency medical help right away.
