Covid-19 and Monoclonal antibodies/ no antibodies after vaccines

There are monoclonal antibody trials. Look up science37- they have one. I’m not sure if you would qualify because you’ve already been vaccinated - but perhaps since you know you have no immune response to the vaccine. I’m curious if you take supplements, including vitamin D, B vitamins, magnesium, zinc, c etc?

Have you had the 3rd vaccine dose? Some transplant patients on immunosuppressants have reported measurable antibodies after 3 shots. That was my daughter's experience as well.

I have a rare kidney disease so I limit over the counter supplements. I do take VitaminC with D3 & Zinc 3-4 X a week. Since I am taking an immunosuppressant drug I have to be care with all medication. Thank you for your interest

Thank you for reaching out. I have had 3 shots. I am planning my winter break in Florida and researching Monoclonal antibodies just for extra safety precautions.

I just took the booster. Having difficulty side effects over night but hopefully they will wear off soon. Body aches and very sore arm. But glad I took it to be protected!

I have had my booster. Experienced several days of extreme fatigue as well as soreness from the injection. Haven’t had my antibodies checked. There appears to be mixed information about developing antibodies after the vaccine if you are taking immunosuppressants. I am planning a winter vacation and considering taking monoclonal antibodies for extra protection during my travels, I am not sure if this is an option

That is an interesting question, presently monoclonal antibodies are used as an early intervention against a known Covid infection, and must be given early after the diagnosis. They have been tested in high-risk populations with a KNOWN exposure, like in a nursing home, and showed effectiveness, but it was before widely available vaccine.

I am thinking the problem would be access and timing to use them prophylactically. Currently, the antibodies require cold storage and IV infusion, so are not suitable for self-administration.

I am considering taking the medication at an infusion center a few days before I leave for Florida. I read that the antibodies last 4-6 weeks, which hopefully will protect me while I am on vacation. Since I have very few antibodies I am thinking out of the box. I don’t know if this is feasible/possible

24 hours later feeling a lot better. Traveling in two weeks to see great grandson (5) hoping I’m fully protected. His mother just got vaccinated and has had covid. So I should be ok.

So thrilled to hear your granddaughter decided to get the vaccine. Now you can visit far more comfortably, and she is protecting her son as well.
Enjoy your visit - and lots of hugs!
