Product Overview
About FLUAD
FLUAD is a seasonal influenza vaccine designed to protect against the H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes of the influenza A virus and the B virus. It is a trivalent vaccine, meaning it contains three different strains of the influenza virus, which are updated annually to match the circulating strains of the virus.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Prevention of influenza A (H1N1) and influenza A (H3N2) and influenza B virus infections
- Protection against severe illness and complications associated with influenza, such as pneumonia and bronchitis
- Reduced risk of hospitalization and death due to influenza
Active Ingredient & Action
FLUAD contains three active ingredients: HAEMAGGLUTININ-STRAIN A (H1N1), HAEMAGGLUTININ-STRAIN A (H3N2), and HAEMAGGLUTININ-STRAIN B. These ingredients stimulate the body's immune system to produce antibodies that recognize and attack the influenza virus, providing protection against infection.
Important Notes
FLUAD is a prescription vaccine and should only be administered by a healthcare professional. It is recommended for individuals 65 years of age and older, as well as those with certain chronic medical conditions or weakened immune systems. As with any vaccine, FLUAD may cause side effects, such as pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site, or systemic symptoms like fever or fatigue. Consult with a healthcare professional for more information and to discuss any concerns or questions you may have.
