With the COVID vaccine being rolled out across the globe, many may be looking to indulge the celebration with cannabis or alcohol, or maybe even both. While we commemorate that the vaccine offers a certain level of protection against the effects of the virus, there isn&#8217;t enough research on the interaction between the vaccine and commonly ingested substances such as alcohol and cannabis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the fact that the research is lacking, some experts have offered up some useful considerations for individuals who have concerns over the vaccines\u2019 interaction with other substances. So, before we get into it, it is important to understand that every person experiences various degrees of the side effects associated with the vaccine. This means that cannabis and alcohol consumption should be done accordingly and responsibly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Alcohol and the COVID Vaccine<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A clinical professor at the University of California, Katherine Yang, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/05\/08\/covid-vaccines-alcohol-and-marijuana-what-to-know-before-your-shot.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">told CNB<\/a>C that<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201ca glass of wine or beer is OK, but heavy alcohol intake can suppress your immune system and should be avoided in general\u201d and that \u201cas always, moderation is key\u201d.\u00a0 Supporting this, CNBC cites Dr.Anne Liu, an infectious disease physician at Stanford Health, who told them that \u201ca celebratory drink or two is totally fine, and it doesn&#8217;t make a difference if you drink on the day of the vaccine or a week later\u201d. Further supporting Yang, Liu explains that \u201ccertainly when people drink enough to affect their liver, that can affect their immune system\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">William Schaffner, MD, a professor of preventive medicine and infectious diseases at Vanderbilt University explained to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.refinery29.com\/en-us\/2021\/04\/10447040\/alcohol-weed-after-vaccine-covid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Refinery 29<\/a> that alcohol is<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201ca little tricky because it can affect your immune system\u201d but that is assuming that you are drinking enough to do so from not complying with the moderate allowance. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.com\/condition\/infectious-diseases\/coronavirus\/can-you-drink-alcohol-after-covid-19-vaccine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Tania Elliott stated that<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cvaccine side effects include muscle aches and pains and feeling under the weather\u201d and that \u201ccompounding that with the side effects of alcohol runs the risk of making you feel worse\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Schaffner also explained that the \u201cWorld Health Center (WHO) advised heavy drinkers to minimize their alcohol consumption during the Covid-19 pandemic\u201d since there are \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.euro.who.int\/__data\/assets\/pdf_file\/0007\/442690\/FAQ-COVID-19-alcohol.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">known links<\/a> between heavy alcohol use and pneumonia, lung infections and other respiratory conditions that can worsen Covid-19 complications\u201d. While this does not have to do with the vaccine- be warned to be cautious.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The COVID Vaccine and Cannabis<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for cannabis, Dr. William Scaffner told Refinery29 that \u201cI don\u2019t think it will influence the immune system in any way\u201d and that \u201csome marijuana legalization activists have offered free joints to newly vaccinated individuals\u201d. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/immunizebc.ca\/ask-us\/questions\/it-safe-use-marijuanacannabis-or-after-getting-covid-19-vaccine-does-it-matter-if\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ImmunizeBC<\/a> supports the safety of cannabis interaction with the vaccine<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. However, they advise against arriving at your vaccine appointment high, since they need your informed consent to administer the vaccine. They also state that they do not \u201chave specific recommendations around cannabis use after getting any vaccine, including the Covid-19 vaccines\u201d. The larger portion of this alcohol is used on alcohol, but that boils down to its complexity- whereas cannabis is more simple in this matter. There isn&#8217;t any official evidence other than anecdotal reports to support it at the moment, but all the professionals seem to agree that it is safe to consume cannabis after getting the vaccine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the side effects are debilitating and moderate-severe, cannabis can be used to alleviate symptoms but one should speak to a medical professional beforehand. However, there are no studies available specifically on the interactions between the vaccine and cannabis as well as between the vaccine and alcohol. With that in mind, let&#8217;s have a look at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/covid-19-vaccine-what-to-do-about-side-effects\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">some of the common vaccine side effects<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that cannabis can alleviate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Vaccine Side Effect<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Cannabis Consumption Benefit<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/conditions\/chronic-fatigue-syndrome\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fatigue<\/span><\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cannabis can make you more sleepy, which is why consumers should look for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/exploring-thcv-the-energizing-and-appetite-suppressing-cannabinoid\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">strains high in TCHV- the energizing cannabinoid<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/conditions\/migraines\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Headaches<\/span><\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/new-research-shows-promising-treatment-results-for-migraine-sufferers\/\">Cannabis can reduce this kind of pain<\/a> by activating the endocannabinoid system naturally.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/conditions\/nausea\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nausea<\/span><\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cannabis is widely known for its ability to alleviate nausea and vomiting. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/the-top-cannabis-strains-that-help-relieve-nausea\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are the top strains for the best relief<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/conditions\/chronic-pain\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pain<\/span><\/a><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is another symptom, or side effect, which cannabis is well known for alleviating. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/relieve-your-chronic-pain-with-these-cannabis-strains\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check out these strains<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><b>Tips:<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid heavy drinking.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not consume cannabis or alcohol on the lead leading up to your vaccination but you may celebrate with either the right strain of cannabis OR a beer or two (at most).\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be in a safe environment if you choose to consume cannabis which may put you to sleep or on couchlock.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not consume both immediately after the vaccine.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be wary of your side effects and do not \u2018celebrate\u2019 if they\u2019re severe.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liu concluded by stating that \u201canything in modest amounts of those substances (alcohol and cannabis) are unlikely to significantly impair your immune system\u2026 but it becomes much less predictable.
