No it does not hurt. It is not much different than using a saline or nasal spray. The sensation is about the same, it can have some slight burning, but nothing that one would call "hurt" or "pain".

Does the Flu Nasal Spray Flu mist hurt?

No. The mist vaccine isn't supposed to hurt, and it didn't hurt when I got it. However, it will catch you off guard, even when they tell you they are about to spray it. It took my breath away when it went in, and it feels funky. There definitely was no pain, though.


Why are there 2 different vaccines for the Swine Flu?

there are two 2 differenct vaccines for the swine flu because people who are needles phobic prefer the nasal spray whereas everyone else would prefer the shot. I prefer the shot only because research it works better than the nasal, i would rather have pain and not the swine flu. wouldn't you?? (note this is my opinion ask your doc for more info.) hope this helps =]


Can Swine Flu vaccination be taken during pregnancy?

In the US, pregnant women can get the injection but not the nasal spray vaccine. The virus in the vaccine that is made to be used in a shot is dead/deactivated. The virus in the vaccine that is made to be used as a nasal spray is weakened (attenuated), it is not strong enough to make you sick, but there have not been clinical trials or approval for use of nasal spray vaccinations for swine flu in pregnant women yet. See also the related questions below and the related links section for information about flu vaccinations in pregnancy from the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG).


Is it safe for your child to get the H1N1 vaccine between his 1st and 2nd dose of the seasonal flu vaccine?

Yes, if they are getting both vaccines by injections. That timing of the two kinds of vaccinations (seasonal flu shot and swine flu shot) is not a problem, in fact they could be given at the same time. This is not true for the nasal mist vaccinations, however.You can NOT take a nasal flu mist for swine flu at the same time as you take a nasal flu mist for seasonal flu. They can render each other ineffective. Ask a health care professional how long you should wait between these two kinds of nasal mist vaccinations.You can take a nasal flu mist for swine flu with any other nasal flu mist vaccine EXCEPT the one for seasonal flu.The 2009 H1N1 flu shot (inactivated 2009 H1N1 vaccine) can be given at the same visit as any other vaccine, including pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine.You can take a swine flu nasal mist at the same time as a seasonal flu shot.You can take the H1N1/09 swine flu shot and a nasal mist for the seasonal flu at the same time.There would be no reason to take the swine flu shot at the same time as the swine flu nasal mist since both do the same thing, so that should not be done.


Do Swine Flu injection hurt?

Well, in our school, we had the choice of the nasal spray or the shot. You had a choice and I as a smart person chose nasal spray. So im not really sure if it hurts, but I think it is the same as any other injection. Hope I helped! PS: I live in Eagle River Alaska PPS: Yoshi rox! No one loves Yoshi more than I do!


How many vaccines are there for the Swine Flu?

Two. In the 2010-2011 flu season in the Northern Hemisphere, the vaccine for the H1N1/09 virus is available included in the regular seasonal flu vaccination. There are two types of these vaccines, one for injection and one for nasal spray administration. There is no need for a separate swine flu shot this year like in the pandemic of 2009.

A while back, drug companies came up with an intranasal spray that is supposed to help fight swine flu.


Can you get H1N1 shot and flu mist together?

You can take the H1N1/09 swine flu shot and a nasal mist for the seasonal flu at the same time.There would be no reason to take the swine flu shot at the same time as the swine flu nasal mist since both do the same thing, so that should not be done.You can take a swine flu nasal mist at the same time as a seasonal flu shot.You can NOT take a nasal flu mist for swine flu at the same time as you take a nasal flu mist for seasonal flu. They can render each other ineffective.You can take a nasal flu mist for swine flu with any other nasal flu mist vaccine EXCEPT the one for seasonal flu.The 2009 H1N1 flu shot (inactivated 2009 H1N1 vaccine) can be given at the same visit as any other vaccine, including pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine.Update 2010: There is no reason to get the H1N1 vaccine or flu mist up your nose this year as there is no pandemic or outbreaks. The US govt has included the H1N1 in every flu shot on top of the regular vaccines for flu which is not necessary and could harm you health permanently with the addition of squalene. Pregnant mothers have lost their babies in thousands of miscarriages, and people have died after the flu shot was given last year. The flu mist will give you live viruses in your nose and when you go home you will be breathing out the viruses to spread to the rest of your family. Take vitamin C instead, and chicken soup -you will live longer.
