Frequently asked questions

What is Influsplit used for?+
Influsplit is a split‑virion influenza vaccine indicated for the prophylactic prevention of influenza infection caused by both influenza A and influenza B viruses. It is administered seasonally to reduce the risk of contracting flu and to lessen the severity of disease in individuals who may be exposed.
How does the active ingredient in Influsplit work?+
The vaccine contains purified viral surface antigens from selected influenza A (Victoria) and B (Austria) strains. After intramuscular injection, these antigens are processed by antigen‑presenting cells, prompting the immune system to produce strain‑specific antibodies and cellular immunity that neutralize the virus upon future exposure.
What is the usual dose of Influsplit?+
The prescribing healthcare professional determines the appropriate dose. Typically, a single intramuscular injection is given each influenza season, but the exact volume and schedule are set by the clinician based on local guidelines and patient factors.
Is Influsplit safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for Influsplit in pregnancy and lactation are limited, and the product is classified as having an unknown pregnancy category. It should be used only if the potential benefit justifies any potential risk, and the decision should be made in consultation with a qualified healthcare provider.
How do I order Influsplit from GNH USA?+

How does Influsplit compare with other influenza vaccines?+
Influsplit is a split‑virion formulation containing specific A (Victoria) and B (Austria) strains, similar to many quadrivalent vaccines. Compared with whole‑virus or live‑attenuated options, split‑virion vaccines generally have a favorable safety profile and are suitable for a broad adult population, though efficacy depends on strain match each season.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Influsplit?+
Influsplit must be stored refrigerated at 2 °C to 8 °C. It should be kept in the original packaging, protected from light, and must never be frozen or shaken. Maintaining the cold chain during transport and storage preserves vaccine potency.
How is Influsplit administered?+
The vaccine is given as a single intramuscular injection, typically into the deltoid muscle of the upper arm. Healthcare professionals should follow aseptic technique, use the appropriate needle size, and observe the patient for a short period after injection for any immediate reactions.
What are the most serious risks associated with Influsplit?+
The most serious adverse events reported are severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, and rare neurological conditions like Guillain‑Barré syndrome. Prompt medical attention is required if symptoms of a severe reaction develop after vaccination.
Who should not receive Influsplit?+
Individuals with a known severe allergy to any component of the vaccine, or those who have experienced a previous anaphylactic reaction to a similar influenza vaccine, should not receive Influsplit. Persons with acute moderate or severe illness should defer vaccination until recovery.
