Fluzone vaccine

Fluzone vaccine contains three inactivated (killed) influenza viruses: type A
(H1N1), type A (H3N2), and type B1,2
�Fluzone vaccine is a split virus vaccine; this type of vaccine is generally
associated with fewer adverse reactions in children.
�Fluzone vaccine viruses are grown in chicken eggs and the final product
contains small amounts of egg protein; therefore, it should not be given to
anyone with hypersensivity to eggs or egg products.
�Fluzone vaccine is available in both pediatric (0.25mL per dose) and adult
(0.5mL per dose) formulations.
�Fluzone vaccine is available with no thimerosal as a preservative (prefilled
syringe) and with thimerosal as a preservative (multi-dose vial).
