WHAT DARONRIX IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Daronrix is a vaccine used in adults aged 18 to 60 years to prevent
influenza (flu) in an officially
declared pandemic. The vaccine works by causing the body to produce
its own protection (antibodies)
against the disease.
Pandemic flu is a type of influenza that occurs every few decades and
which spreads rapidly to affect
most countries and regions around the world. The symptoms of pandemic
flu are similar to those of
“ordinary” flu but are usually more severe.
2.
BEFORE YOU RECEIVE DARONRIX
DARONRIX SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN:
•
if you have previously had any allergic reaction to Daronrix, or any
ingredient (including eggs,
chicken protein, gentamicin sulphate (antibiotic)) contained in this
vaccine. The active
substances and other ingredients in Daronrix are listed at the end of
the leaflet. Signs of an
allergic reaction may include itchy skin rash, shortness of breath and
swelling of the face or
tongue. However, in a pandemic situation, it may be appropriate to
give the vaccine, provided
that facilities for resuscitation are immediately available in case of
need.
TAKE SPECIAL CARE WITH DARONRIX:
•
if you have a severe infection with a high temperature (over 38°C). A
minor infection suc

POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Daronrix has been evaluated with a haemagglutinin content of 15 µg HA
per dose in adults aged 18-60
years following a 0, 21 day schedule.
Adults from the age of 18 to 60 years will receive two doses of
Daronrix, the first administered at an
elected date, the second at least three weeks after the first dose for
maximum efficacy.
No data have been generated with Daronrix below 18 years of age.
Therefore health care providers
need to assess the benefits and potential risks of administering the
vaccine in that population.
For pregnant women, see section 4.6.
