We are only giving the Moderna Vaccine at this time.

You must be 18 years or older to receive the Moderna Vaccine.

I keep hearing about booster doses, when can I get mine?

There has been a lot in the news this week about Moderna Boosters.  After all regulatory agencies give approval, we have to wait for the state of Missouri to issue a standing order before we can begin giving boosters.

According to the CDC, patients who had their second dose at least 6 months ago and meet one of the following criteria will be eligible as long as the states standing order matches the CDCs approval:

• You are 65 or older
• You are 18 or older AND live in a long term care facility
• You are 18+ AND an underlying medical condition
• You are 18+ and work or live in a high risk setting.

Boosters for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine have been approved for some patient populations 6 months after their last dose.  At this time, Kilgore's Medical Pharmacy only has Moderna vaccine.  If you are eligible for a booster, please visit Vaccine Finder to find Pfizer-BioNTech in your area.

3rd Doses are only available for those considered moderately or severely immunosuppressed based on one or more of the following conditions, treatments or diagnosis.

• Immune compromised due to undergone solid organ transplantation and
  taking immune suppressing medications
• Immune compromised due to active treatment for solid tumor and
  hematologic malignancies
• Immune compromised due to receipt of CAR-T cell or hematopoietic stem
  cell transplant (within 2 years of transplantation or taking
  immunosuppression therapy)
• Moderate to severe primary immunodeficiency (eg., DiGeorge, Wiskott-
  Aldrich Syndromes)
• Immune compromised due to Advanced or untreated HIV infection
• Immune compromised due to “Active treatment with high-dose corticosteroids
  or other drugs that may suppress immune response: high-dose corticosteroids
  (ie.,≥ 20 mg prednisone or equivalent per day), alkylating agents,
  antimetabolites, transplant-related immunosuppressive drugs, cancer
  chemotherapeutic agents classified as severely immunosuppressive, tumor-
  necrosis (TNF) blocker or other biologic agents that are immunosuppressive
  or immunomodulatory “

If you need an additional dose, you may print and complete this attestation and bring with you to the pharmacy.

If you have questions on if you fall into one of these categories, please contact your doctor.
