Frequently asked questions

What is Influvac Tetra used for?+
Influvac Tetra is a quadrivalent influenza vaccine indicated for the prevention of seasonal influenza infection. It is administered to individuals six months of age and older to reduce the risk of contracting flu caused by the four virus strains included in the formulation.
How does the active ingredient in Influvac Tetra work?+
The vaccine contains inactivated virus antigens that are recognized by the immune system after injection. Antigen‑presenting cells process these proteins and activate T‑cells, which in turn stimulate B‑cells to produce strain‑specific antibodies. These antibodies neutralise the matching influenza viruses, providing protective immunity.
What is the usual dose of Influvac Tetra?+
The prescribed dose is determined by the treating healthcare professional. In routine practice a single 0.5 mL injection is given each influenza season, but the exact volume and schedule are set by the prescriber based on age, health status and local guidelines.
Is Influvac Tetra safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Influvac Tetra is classified as a non‑live vaccine and may be offered to pregnant women after a risk‑benefit assessment by a healthcare provider. Limited data suggest it does not pose a significant risk, but women should discuss vaccination with their obstetrician. Breastfeeding is not a contraindication.
How do I order Influvac Tetra from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details (including cold‑chain logistics) and any necessary import documentation.
How does Influvac Tetra compare with other influenza vaccines?+
Influvac Tetra is a quadrivalent, inactivated vaccine covering two influenza A subtypes and both lineages of influenza B. Compared with trivalent formulations, it offers broader protection against circulating B strains. Its safety profile is similar to other inactivated flu vaccines, and it can be co‑administered with other non‑live vaccines.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Influvac Tetra?+
The vaccine 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 is essential to preserve potency.
How is Influvac Tetra given or administered?+
Influvac Tetra is administered by a single intramuscular or subcutaneous injection, typically into the deltoid muscle of the upper arm. The injection is performed by a qualified healthcare professional using aseptic technique.
What are the most serious risks associated with Influvac Tetra?+
Serious adverse events are rare but may include anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction that requires immediate medical attention, Guillain‑Barré syndrome, a rare neurological condition, and, in very young children, febrile seizures. Any signs of these reactions should be reported to a healthcare provider promptly.
Who should not receive Influvac Tetra?+
Individuals with a known severe allergy to any component of the vaccine or who have experienced a previous severe reaction to an influenza vaccine should avoid it. Persons with acute moderate or severe illness should defer vaccination until recovery. The prescriber should evaluate each case individually.
