I use this vaccine for the fifth year, she also vaccinated my family: from my wife to my young daughter. During this time, no one complained about either the temperature or the cough, but also the redness after the injection. So I do not know what you are kote, but the vaccine helps us perfectly.

Just tried in the epidemic less travel in the transport, walk in shopping centers, well, in every possible way he took care of health, was tempered. But then I began to listen to the opinions of doctors, and for the health of kids, it is exciting, especially when traveling to a kindergarten on public transport. Influvax advised our pediatrician, we did not refuse. Fears about vaccination were not justified: everything went well, the flu did not get sick( it also went through vaccination).So we will be vaccinated every year. "
• Anna Viktorovna, pharmacist: " I work in a pharmacy, so I am well informed about the topic of antiviral drugs and vaccines against influenza. After a long search, she stopped at Influvak, planted her family and herself. I must say that the composition of vaccines in the same generation is the same, so I chose it because it is imported, and therefore better purified. Recently she also planted a baby 2-year-old, everything was fine, no side effects. So the effectiveness of the vaccine was tested on myself. But, of course, before buying a better consultation with your doctor. "

Influvac is a great way to prevent flu for quite some time. However, like any other vaccine, it requires strict adherence to instructions and consultation with a doctor-therapist before use.
