Aspirin and Influenza A H1N1 Intranasal

In the database of official manuals used in the service creation an interaction registered by statistical results of studies was found, which can either lead to negative consequences for the patient health or strengthen a mutual positive effect. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Vaccination with influenza virus vaccine, H1N1, live is not recommended in children less than 18 years of age who are receiving aspirin therapy. The use of aspirin or related medications has been linked to a serious and potentially fatal condition called Reye's syndrome in children with certain viral infections such as influenza or chicken pox. Because influenza virus vaccine, H1N1, live contains live (but weakened) virus, there is some concern that it can cause Reye's syndrome when used with aspirin. The immunizing doctor should be informed of current or recent therapy with aspirin so that appropriate measures and/or precautions can be taken, such as substituting influenza virus vaccine, H1N1, live with a vaccine that contains inactivated virus. Never give aspirin to children or adolescents who have a fever without talking to a doctor, especially if they also have flu symptoms or chicken pox. It is important to tell the doctor about all other medications being used, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to the doctor.

CONTRAINDICATED: In pediatric patients, use of live influenza virus vaccine during salicylate or salicylate-containing therapy may pose a theoretical risk of Reye's syndrome based on known association of the syndrome with aspirin and wild-type influenza infection.

MANAGEMENT: The use of live influenza virus vaccine is contraindicated in children and adolescents less than 18 years of age who are receiving salicylate or salicylate-containing therapy. These patients should be immunized with an inactivated influenza virus vaccine.
