Confirmed anaphylaxis after immunisation is extremely rare with anaphylactoid reactions reported approximately one in every 500,000 doses
Other allergic conditions, such as rashes, may occur more commonly and are not contraindications to further immunisation
Where there is doubt, appropriate advice should be sought from a consultant paediatrician, immunisation co-ordinator or consultant in communicable disease control rather than withhold immunisation
