Dear lybrate-user, both covishield and covaxin does not contain egg components, so they are safe in egg allergy patients, and low bp is not a contraindication to vaccination. You can take the vaccination, it just that you inform the health care person available there about your allergy so that they can monitor you post vaccination.

The government has prohibited vaccination to pregnant and lactating mother but there is no word of caution on sexual intercourse after vaccination.
Medical experts have advised volunteers who have participated in phase iii clinical trials of covaxin to use a condom before having sex for three months.

The covid-19 vaccines presently available in india, i.e. Covishield and covaxin are classified as inactivated (non-live) vaccines. Theoretically, administration of these vaccines to breastfeeding women should not render any harm to the breastfed infant.
