Health Canada issues label change on the AstraZeneca and COVISHIELD COVID-19 vaccines
Health Canada is updating the product monograph—or label—for the AstraZeneca and COVISHIELD COVID-19 vaccines to add capillary leak syndrome as a potential side effect, with a warning for patients with a history of capillary leak syndrome to not get the AstraZeneca or COVISHIELD COVID-19 vaccine. The label has also been updated with information about very rare events of blood clots associated with low levels of platelets following immunization
Any case of serious or unexpected adverse events in patients receiving vaccines should be reported to your local public health authorities or directly to the Public Health Agency of Canada.
