Can COVID-19 re-infection occur even after taking two doses of the vaccine?

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

For three days, I have had a sore throat, body pains, weakness, headache, runny nose, and burning eyes. I do not think it is COVID-19, as I was infected only three months back, and it took one month for me to completely recover. I am double vaccinated for COVID-19. I do not use masks when I am in public. Can it be a COVID-19 infection again? Kindly suggest some medicines for my symptoms.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your question.

I understand your concern and would be happy to help. Yes, Covid can reinfect. However, as you are vaccinated, the severity will be mild. So, there is no need to panic. I suggest you follow the below treatment plan. Consult with a specialist doctor, talk to him or her, and take medicines with their consent.

  1. Tablet Azithromycin 500 mg twice daily.
  2. Tablet Allegra M (Fexofenadine Hydrochloride and Montelukast) twice daily.
  3. Tablet Zincovit once daily.
  4. Tablet Limcee (Vitamin C) once daily.

I also suggest you do warm water gargling and steam inhalation four to five times a day.

I hope this helps.

Kindly revert in case of further questions.

I wish you good health.

Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
