Are There Specific Vaccines That Are More Affected?
Generally, live attenuated vaccines, such as the MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) and varicella (chickenpox) vaccines, are more affected by immunosuppressive drugs. This is because these vaccines rely on the immune system to mount a strong response to the weakened form of the virus. In contrast, inactivated vaccines like the influenza or COVID-19 vaccines may still be effective, although the immune response may still be reduced.
