- Please eat and drink sufficiently before blood sampling and vaccinations (do not come sober).
- You are also welcome to get water from us in the outpatient clinic.
- get up slowly after vaccinations/blood tests
- After vaccinations, it is recommended that you remain seated in the waiting area for 10-15 minutes.
