NO. You second dose must be from the same manufacture as your first dose.

keerok · Answer

No. Stick to the same brand. If your first is Pfizer then your second should also be Pfizer.

ask your physician.  and do NOT do it too soon after the first dose -- that's risky

Read the paperwork they gave you when you got your shot.

No, your second dose has to be the same vaccine as the first dose. They are not the same and produce slightly different antibodies so the second dose would not sufficiently reactivate the immune system after it is trained by the first dose.
