Can you have the shingles shot if you are allergic to pencillin?
Life-threatening allergic reactions to vaccines are very rare.The contraindications for the A-H1N1/09 vaccinations regarding allergies are to avoid them if you have an allergy to eggs, egg products, or chicken protein and if you are allergic to any of the other ingredients in the vaccines. Some vaccines are prepared with some types of antibiotics, but not penicillin (see the related question below for a complete list of ingredients in the vaccines currently approved for use in the US and UK).Be sure to tell the person who will administer your vaccine that you have an allergy so they can determine what the best choice of vaccine would be for you and advise you on how to obtain that type if what they are administering is contraindicated in your individual case. For some people with allergies, they may also suggest that you wait for a few hours for observation after the vaccination before leaving to be sure you do not have any signs of an allergic reaction and for intervention if that should occur. Typically, allergic reactions from vaccines will occur within minutes or, at the most a few hours, of the administration.

What are intravenous vaccines?
It depends on the type of vaccine that gets introduced into the blood and circulatory system by the intravenous (IV) route. Vaccines are typically not intended for that method of administration. It could be a serious complication if the medicine has been given by an incorrect route. If you believe this has happened, you should contact a medical professional for advice in your specific circumstances without delay. The flu vaccines are not intended for this method of delivery and you should seek urgent medical attention if that route was used for your influenza vaccine.

There can be extremely minute traces of chicken protein in vaccines that are made by growing the organisms in eggs. These amounts are so small they are considered negligible except for those with extreme allergy to chicken/eggs. There are also new guidelines for giving vaccines to those with egg allergies safely. See the related questions for more information.
What kinds of eggs are flu vaccines made from?
The viruses that are put into flu vaccines must first be grown in a lab to produce enough to make a vaccine. The virus is grown in eggs during that culturing process. Most commonly they are grown in chicken eggs. The vaccines are not made from the eggs, but rather from the virus particles that are grown in the eggs along with the medium for administration, etc. See related questions below for more information.
How do live attenuated vaccines work?
They are vaccines that contain viruses that have been treated to make them too weak to make you sick. The word "attenuated" just means "weakened". This type of live attenuated vaccine is what is approved for intra-nasal administration (nasal spray) of the flu vaccines in the US. The approved intra-muscular injection vaccine is made with totally inactivated ("dead") virus particles. See related questions below.
