Consumer:

The administration of live or live attenuated vaccines is not recommended or may be contraindicated in patients receiving large or immunosuppressive doses of corticosteroids. Inactivated viral or bacterial vaccines should be used with caution, since their administration may pose a risk of neurological complications in these patients. Additionally, a diminished or inadequate serum antibody response may be anticipated. Immunization may be undertaken in patients receiving corticosteroids as replacement therapy, such as for Addison's disease.
