Salam Consumer Medicine Information VAXIGRIP® Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (Split Virion) BP What is in this leaflet This leaflet answers some common questions about VAXIGRIP. It does not contain all the available information. It does not take the place of talking to your doctor or pharmacist. All medicines, including vaccines, have risks and benefits. Your doctor has weighed the risks of you or your child having VAXIGRIP against the benefits they expect it will have. If you have any concerns about this vaccine, ask your doctor, nurse or pharmacist. Keep this leaflet. You may need to read it again. What VAXIGRIP is used for VAXIGRIP is a vaccine used to help prevent influenza. Annual vaccination against influenza is recommended for the following individuals: All people over the age of 65 years People under 65 years of age with chronic illness especially: Heart disease Lung disease - asthma that require regular preventative therapy; other chronic lung disease with impaired lung function Diabetes Kidney disorder Cancer Other conditions - diseases that require treatment with medicines that reduce natural immunity, HIV, children on long-term aspirin therapy Pregnant women Influenza vaccination is recommended for any pregnant women who are beyond the first trimester of pregnancy i.e. those who will be in the second or third trimester of pregnancy during the influenza season. Influenza vaccination is funded by the government for those pregnant women with a medical condition listed above. Other people Healthy individuals should consider the use of the vaccine, especially if they are in close contact with individuals at high risk of complications i.e. those who work in medical or health services and those who can transmit influenza to persons in any of the previously mentioned at risk groups. Employers should consider providing influenza vaccine to avoid illness in their employees, especially those engaged in health care and other essential community services. How VAXIGRIP works VAXIGRIP works by causing your body to produce its own protection against influenza. VAXIGRIP is used for the prevention of influenza caused by Influenza Virus types A and B. After receiving your VAXIGRIP injection, your body will produce antibodies. These antibodies help your body to recognise the virus and prevent the infection. It takes about 2 weeks for your body to produce these antibodies, and in most cases these antibodies will provide protection for 1 year. Please note that VAXIGRIP will only protect you against the three types of influenza virus contained in the vaccine. It will not protect you from influenza caused by other types of viruses. Protection requires 1 dose (Follow up (booster) dose may also be required). Most people will produce enough antibodies against influenza. However, as with all vaccines, 100% protection cannot be guaranteed. The vaccine will not give you or your child influenza. The chance of a severe reaction from VAXIGRIP is very small, but the risks from not being vaccinated against influenza may be very serious. Before you are given VAXIGRIP When you or your child must not be given it Do not have VAXIGRIP if you or your child has an allergy to: VAXIGRIP or any of the ingredients listed at the end of this leaflet Eggs, fowl proteins, and/or chicken feathers Neomycin Symptoms of an allergic reactions may include: Shortness of breath, wheezing or difficulty breathing Swelling of the face, lips, tongue or other parts of the body Skin rash, itching or hives Do not have VAXIGRIP if you or your child has a high temperature (current acute feverish illness).

Your doctor may decide to delay vaccination until the illness has passed. A mild illness, such as a cold, is not usually a reason to delay vaccination. Tell your doctor if you or your child has, or has had, any medical conditions, especially the following: Lowered immunity due to diseases such as some blood disorders, kidney disease requiring dialysis, HIV/AIDS or cancer Lowered immunity due to treatment with medicines such as corticosteroids, cyclosporin or other medicines used to treat cancer Leukaemia or any other cancers of the blood, bone marrow or lymph system Lung diseases or asthma Guillain-Barré Syndrome Tell your doctor if you or your child has allergies to: Any other medicines Any other substances, such as foods, preservatives or dyes Taking other medicines Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you or your child is taking any other medicines, including any that you buy without a prescription from your pharmacy, supermarket or health food shop.

Theophylline, a medicine used to control asthma Warfarin, a medicine used to prevent blood clots Immunoglobulins, blood products used to prevent some infections Medicines which lower the immune system, such as corticosteroids, cyclosporin or other medicines used to treat cancer, including radiation therapy These medicines may be affected by VAXIGRIP, or may affect how well it works. Your doctor or pharmacist will advise you and decide whether or not to give the vaccine. Having other vaccines Tell your doctor if you or your child has had any vaccines in the last 4 weeks.
