Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Influsplit Tetra is a quadrivalent influenza vaccine used to protect against influenza B virus infections.
  • Prevention of influenza B infection (B/Phuket/3073/2013-like): reduces incidence of illness caused by this strain.
  • Prevention of influenza B infection (B/Austria/1359417/202): reduces incidence of illness caused by this strain.
  • Seasonal influenza prophylaxis: provides broader protection against circulating influenza viruses during the flu season.

How It Works

  • Influsplit Tetra contains split virion particles of the specified influenza B strains. After intramuscular injection, the viral antigens are taken up by antigen‑presenting cells, which process and display them to T lymphocytes. This stimulates a humoral immune response, leading to the production of strain‑specific neutralising antibodies and the generation of immunological memory, thereby conferring active immunity against subsequent exposure to the matched influenza viruses.

Side Effects

Like other influenza vaccines, Influsplit Tetra may be associated with local and systemic reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Pain at injection site: mild to moderate soreness.
  • Redness or swelling at injection site.
  • Low‑grade fever.
  • Headache.
  • Muscle aches.
  • Fatigue.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Anaphylaxis: severe allergic reaction requiring immediate medical attention.
  • Guillain‑Barré syndrome: rare neurological disorder.
  • Seizures: especially in children with a history of febrile seizures.
  • High‑grade fever >39°C.
  • Persistent vomiting.
  • Severe local reaction with extensive swelling.

Precautions & Warnings

Before administering Influsplit Tetra, consider the following precautions.

  • Contraindication: severe allergic reaction to any component of the vaccine: do not vaccinate.
  • History of Guillain‑Barré syndrome: evaluate risk versus benefit before use.
  • Acute moderate or severe illness: postpone vaccination until recovery.
  • Pregnancy: vaccine may be administered if benefits outweigh potential risks; consult healthcare provider.
  • Immunocompromised patients: vaccine may be less effective; monitor response.
  • Store at 2-8°C: keep refrigerated, protect from light, do not freeze or shake.

Avoid Interactions

Influsplit Tetra can interact with other vaccines or immunomodulatory agents.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Live attenuated vaccines: avoid co‑administration within 4 weeks to prevent interference.
  • Immunoglobulin therapy: may reduce vaccine efficacy if given within 2 weeks before or after vaccination.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Antipyretics (acetaminophen, ibuprofen): may blunt antibody response if taken prophylactically; use only for symptomatic relief.
  • Corticosteroids (systemic): may diminish immune response; assess timing.
  • Antiviral medications (oseltamivir): generally safe but monitor for any reduced immunogenicity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Influsplit Tetra is a split‑virion quadrivalent influenza vaccine indicated for the prevention of influenza B infections caused by the B/Phuket/3073/2013‑like and B/Austria/1359417/202 strains, as well as for general seasonal influenza prophylaxis in the broader population.

The B/Phuket/3073/2013‑like virus is presented as an inactivated, split‑virion antigen. After intramuscular injection, it is processed by antigen‑presenting cells, which activate T‑cells and stimulate B‑cells to produce strain‑specific neutralising antibodies, establishing active immunity against future exposure to the matching influenza virus.

The dose of Influsplit Tetra is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, a single intramuscular injection is administered, but the exact volume and schedule depend on local immunisation guidelines and the patient’s age and health status.

Influsplit Tetra may be given to pregnant or breastfeeding individuals when the expected benefits outweigh any potential risks. Healthcare providers should evaluate each case individually and discuss the safety profile with the patient before vaccination.

To order Influsplit Tetra, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com with the required quantity. GNH India supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details (including cold‑chain logistics if needed) and any required import documentation.

Influsplit Tetra is a split‑virion quadrivalent vaccine that specifically includes two influenza B strains, offering broader B‑type coverage compared with some trivalent formulations. Its safety and immunogenicity profile is comparable to other licensed quadrivalent vaccines, while the cold‑chain storage requirement aligns with standard practice for injectable vaccines.

Influsplit Tetra must be stored at 2‑8 °C in a refrigerator. Keep the vials in the original packaging, protect them from light, and avoid freezing or shaking the product. Do not use the vaccine if it has been exposed to temperatures outside this range.

The vaccine is administered by a single intramuscular injection, usually into the deltoid muscle of the upper arm. The injection should be performed by a qualified healthcare professional using aseptic technique.

Serious adverse events, although rare, include anaphylaxis, Guillain‑Barré syndrome, high‑grade fever, seizures (particularly in children with a history of febrile seizures), and severe local reactions with extensive swelling. Any of these symptoms require immediate medical evaluation.

Individuals with a known severe allergy to any component of the vaccine or who have experienced a previous severe allergic reaction to a similar influenza vaccine should not receive Influsplit Tetra. Additionally, persons with a recent history of Guillain‑Barré syndrome should be evaluated carefully before vaccination.
