Patients with a history of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) with an onset related in time to influenza vaccination may be at increased risk of again developing GBS if given influenza vaccine. Use in pregnancy & lactation: Safety of use during pregnancy has not been established; benefits of vaccination should be weighed against potential risks. However, as an inactivated vaccine, it does not share the theoretical risks associated with live vaccines. It is not known if this is excreted in human milk; hence, caution should used when administering vaccine to breastfeed ing women.
