VaxigripTetra NH/VaxigripTetra SH should under no circumstances be administered intravascularly.
As with other vaccines administered intramuscularly, the vaccine should be administered with caution to subjects with thrombocytopenia or a bleeding disorder since bleeding may occur following an intramuscular administration to these subjects.
Syncope (fainting) can occur following, or even before, any vaccination as a psychogenic response to the needle injection. Procedures should be in place to prevent injury from fainting and manage syncopal reactions.
VaxigripTetra NH/VaxigripTetra SH is intended to provide protection against those strains of influenza virus from which the vaccine is prepared.
