Dr Offit's Flu Vaccine Opinion 

We have the following on order, expected soon. Watch here for updates.

Injectible seasonal vaccine for people over 3 years old.

Injectible H1N1-09 (swine flu) vaccine for people 6 months and older,

Nasal seasonal vaccine for people ages 2 to 49 without chronic illness.

Nasal H1N1-09 (swine flu) vaccine for people ages 2 to 49 without chronic illness. 

As soon as we get new vaccine in, we will post the information here.

H1N1-09 (swine flu) is widespread in Sheridan. Typical symptoms include sudden onset of fever, tight cough, muscle aches, headache, runny nose and runny eyes.

Tamiflu can be helpful to treat H1N1-09, but most healthy people recover with no medicine. People should stay home from work or school until they have had no fever for 24 hours with no fever treatment (acetaminophen or ibuprofen) and until they are feeling better.

People who should take Tamiflu for H1N1-09 disease include: people sick enough to require hospitalization, children under age 2, adults over age 65, women who are pregnant, people on long term aspirin therapy, people on long term immunosupporession (systemic steroids or chemotherapy) and people with serious chronic diseases. Call our office if you have more questions. 307-672-6451.

Call our office to make appointments to receive season flu vaccine and H1N1-09 during office hours or during our flu clinic Saturday morning November 14th.
