Can you get the flu shot while taking Flagyl?

There is no drug interaction problem between the flu vaccine and Flagyl. But whether you get the vaccination while still taking the antibiotic may depend on why you are taking antibiotics. If you have a current infection, it is usually better to wait until that is cleared up before taking vaccines. But, each situation can be different, and this is a question that the doctor who prescribed the antibiotics should be asked to know what is right in your case.Unless there is a specific reason your doctor wants you to wait, usually the only reason not to get a flu shot while taking antibiotics would be if you have an active infection with a high fever over 101 F. Get your flu shot unless you have a high fever, or the doctor recommends delaying the immunization due to your specific condition.

How can you Find Out if you ever had a flu shot?

Will a flu shot help once you have been exposed to the flu?

It won't prevent that particular exposure from resulting in infection, but if the exposure was to a different type of flu virus than the types of flu the vaccine was made to prevent, then you will still have protection to the other type(s) by getting the shot. In healthy adults, the flu shot typically takes 2 weeks after injection to provide antibody protection against the flu, this is longer than the typical duration of most symptoms of the flu, so your body will likely have a stronger (and quicker) response to the full strength virus in the wild to which you were exposed and that will help before the shot can. It sure won't hurt and since you will likely not have a lab confirmation of the type of flu to which you were exposed, getting the flu shot is still important in case they are different types of flu viruses in the shot and in the exposure. The shot will not act to reduce the symptoms or duration of the flu from the environmental exposure like an anti-viral medicine might. Consult with your doctor or the pharmacist for advice on whether you might benefit from anti-viral medicines and for advice on whether the flu vaccination is still needed since you have had wild exposure (they may be able to determine if the type of flu in the shot is the same or different from the type to which you were exposed and offer some opinions on the continued need for the vaccine). Likely they will still recommend that you get the vaccine, however.
