FLUZONE QUADRIVALENT VACCINE
Influenza… bring it onStand up to influenza with a 4-strain defense that helps protect patients 6 months of age and older1
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.

Effectiveness of seasonal influenza vaccines depends on several factors2-4
• Predicting which strains will predominate during a season
– Selections are based on viral surveillance data collected by the WHOa and the CDCb
• Matching of vaccine strains with the circulating strains – Since 2001, 2 distinct B lineages have co-circulated
each season—B Victoria and B Yamagata – Current trivalent influenza vaccines protect against
2 A strains but only 1 B strain
• Varying prevalence of each of the circulating strains
The B strain and the impact of its unpredictability
a WHO = World Health Organization.b CDC = Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Since 2001, trivalent vaccines have left patients underprotected due to mismatched B-lineage strains in 6 of the 11 seasons shown below.

According to the CDC, between 1999 and 2009d QUADRIVALENT INFLUENZA PROTECTION COULD HAVE
POTENTIALLY PREVENTED2:
Broad protection is needed against both B strains2
c Based on data collected from the 2004-2005 through 2010-2011 seasons. Data from the 2009-2010 pandemic season were not included.8
d Based on CDC data from the 1999-2000 through the 2008-2009 seasons.2
Influenza B virus can be devastating• B strains cause epidemics
every 2 to 4 years3
• 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 More than
2.7 million influenza cases
More than 21,000
influenza-relatedhospitalizations
Nearly 1400 influenza-related deaths
On average,
34% of influenza-related deaths in
children up to 18 years of age were due to influenza B8,c

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 INFORMATIONINDICATIONFluzone 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 INFORMATIONThe 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.
