| 2009 H1N1 Pandemic Influenza in Idaho
Flu viruses can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death. Here in Idaho, a number of influenza (flu) virus strains can cause disease. Currently, almost all circulating virus strains detected in Idaho are 2009 H1N1 influenza.
The best way to prevent the flu is by getting an influenza vaccine. The 2009 - 2010 flu season is unique, because two vaccines will be available:
- A seasonal influenza vaccine (provide link to IDHW seasonal vaccine page): Currently available.
- A 2009 H1N1 vaccine [Influenza A (H1N1) 2009 Monovalent vaccine]
For more information, you can go to http://healthandwelfare.idaho.gov/default.aspx?tabid=871
FDA Approved Drugs for Influenza
Tamiflu (oseltamivir phosphate) and Relenza (zanamivir) are the two FDA-approved influenza antiviral drugs that are recommended by CDC for use against the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus. The prescribing information for both products is provided below, as well as the Emergency Use Authorizations (EUA's) and fact sheets for both drugs.
For comprehensive information from FDA, please go to the 2009 H1N1 Flu Virus (Swine Flu) Information page.
