Some children aged under 9 years who have never had a flu vaccine before will need to have a second dose of flu vaccine if they are at high risk of complications from infection with flu. If your child has never had a flu vaccine before and is aged under 9 years, they may need a second dose of flu vaccine if they have any of the following conditions: chronic heart disease; chronic liver disease; chronic neurological disease; chronic renal failure; chronic respiratory disease (including cystic fibrosis, moderate or severe asthma); diabetes mellitus; any condition that might mean they cannot breathe well (e.g., a spinal cord injury, seizure disorder, or other neuromuscular disorder); Down syndrome; cancer; immunosuppression due to disease or treatment including asplenia or hyposplenism; moderate to severe neurodevelopmental disorders such as cerebral palsy and intellectual disability.

Does your child have one or more of the conditions listed above?

YesNo

Before your child is vaccinated you should let your vaccinator know if your child: has had influenza antiviral medications in the 48 hours before their vaccine is due, they should not get the vaccine; has an acute exacerbation of asthma, including increased wheezing and/or needed additional inhalers in the previous 72 hours, they should not receive the nasal flu vaccine; has gotten a dose of the flu vaccine from their GP or Pharmacist since the consent form was completed, they should not get the vaccine; is unwell with a sudden fever (as vaccination should be delayed until recovery).

I have read and understood the Nasal Influenza (Fluenz) vaccination leaflet and have been given an opportunity to speak to the pharmacist providing the vaccine. I have been given an opportunity to ask questions and raise any concerns. I understand: the nature of the treatment; the risks of influenza; the benefits and risks of immunisation; the possible side effects of vaccination, when they might occur and how they should be treated. I agree that the details I have supplied have been recorded and those records will be kept by Dublin 8 Pharmacy and shared with the HSE for the purposes of public health as required by legislation.

I agree for my child to proceed with the vaccination for Nasal Influenza (Fluenz)
