Is it OK to have flu shot while taking Pegasus? I had 2 covid shot of Pfizer. Thanks

Hi Sam2022I am on Pegasys and interferon before that and I have had a annual flu jab for over 15 years, no issues at all and a good thing to get it.

Thanks for the note. Good to hear you had 15 years of experience with PEG. All the best.

No issues - I’ve had flu jabs for the past 6 years while on Pegasys and have my next one booked tomorrow

I’ve had flu vaccination and on peg & no issues for me👍

My consultant recommended I have the flu jab now that I'm on Pegasys 😊

I just had flu shot yesterday. Just felt a little weak, which is normal to me. Thank everybody for your meaningful message. Take care!

I had my flu jab without any problems, I didn’t even have a sore arm which I usually do. It’s not a live vaccine so is fine to have
