Protection against the B strain is critical Influenza B virus can be devastating
Broad protection is needed against both B strains2
• B strains cause epidemics every 2 to 4 years 3
According to the CDC, between 1999 and 2009d
QUADRIVALENT INFLUENZA PROTECTION COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY PREVENTED2:
• Influenza B virus represented up to 44% of circulating strains between 2001-2002 and 2010-2011 (excludes the 2009-2010 pandemic) 8 • On average, influenza-associated hospitalization and mortality rates are higher with type B influenza than with type A (H1N1) 3,8 • The impact of circulating B strains is greater in children and young adults3,8

In multicenter studies with a total of 4745 participants 6 months of age and older in the per-protocol analysis set, Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine generated immune responses similar to those following trivalent formulations of Fluzone vaccine for the strains contained in each. Participants received either Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine or 1 of 2 comparative trivalent vaccine formulations.1 Each trivalent formulation contained either an influenza type B virus of the Victoria lineage (B/Brisbane/60/2008) or the Yamagata lineage (B/Florida/4/2006), which corresponded to 1 of the 2 type B viruses in Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine.1

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION INDICATION Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine is an inactivated quadrivalent influenza virus vaccine indicated for the prevention of influenza disease caused by influenza subtype A and type B viruses contained in the vaccine. Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine is approved for use in persons 6 months of age and older.
SAFETY INFORMATION The most common local and systemic adverse reactions to Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine include pain (tenderness in young children), erythema, and swelling at the injection site; myalgia, malaise, headache, and fever (irritability, abnormal crying, drowsiness, appetite loss, and vomiting in young children). Other adverse reactions may occur. Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine should not be administered to anyone with a known hypersensitivity (eg, anaphylaxis) to any vaccine component, including egg protein or thimerosal (the multi-dose vial is the only presentation containing thimerosal), or to a previous dose of any influenza vaccine. If Guillain-Barré syndrome has occurred within 6 weeks of receipt of previous influenza vaccination, the decision to give Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine should be based on careful consideration of the potential benefits and risks. Vaccination with Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine may not protect all individuals. Before administering Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine, please click here to see full Prescribing Information.
