Hello ma'am,

The side effects of a vaccine can last from 7 to 14 days although it is usually less than that

As long as he remains in good condition, eating and drinking (even if less than usual), wetting and soiling his diaper, just monitor his general condition.

I hope I've been helpful, I'm available if you have any other questions!

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
