Consumer:

Zoster vaccine live may interfere with the response to trichophyton skin test and lead to false-negative test results. Trichophyton skin test may be given before or at the same time as zoster vaccine live. However, a person who has been vaccinated with zoster vaccine live may need to wait four to six weeks before getting tested with trichophyton skin test. It is important to tell the doctor about all other medications being used, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to the doctor.

Professional:

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Reactivity to diagnostic skin test antigens may be temporarily depressed in patients who have recently been vaccinated with live virus vaccines. Falsely insignificant or false-negative results may occur in such patients.

MANAGEMENT: Clinicians should be aware of the potential for falsely insignificant or false-negative results when performing delayed-hypersensitivity skin testing on patients who have recently received live virus vaccines. Diagnostic skin test antigens should be administered before, simultaneously with, or 4 to 6 weeks after immunization.
