Can I get a flu shot prophylactically by taking Tamiflu?
I am taking Tamiflu because I have been in contact with my granddaughter who tested positive for the flu. I have to take the drug for 10 days after 1 tablet. I took only 2 tablets. So far, I have no flu symptoms. I have a question whether taking Tamiflu I can get a flu vaccine, or should I wait when I finish taking the drug?

Tamiflu does not alter the effectiveness of influenza vaccination. If you use the drug prophylactically, vaccination may be prescribed at the same time: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/77261/tamiflu-kapsulki/apteki I encourage you to familiarize yourself with additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/szczepionki-przeciw-grypie https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/szczepienia-na-grype-dla-kogo-sa-przeznaczone Tamiflu does not replace vaccination: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/1106/tamiflu-czy-mozna-brac-tamiflu-albo-ebilfumin-zamiast-szczepic-sie-przeciwko-grypie I encourage you to consult your doctor before getting vaccinated. For vaccination, you must purchase the vaccine on the basis of a valid medical prescription. A prescription can be obtained, for example, using teleadvice offered, m.in by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja We wrote more about how to get an e-prescription by phone in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/blog/jak-telefoniczne-otrzymac-recepte-i-zwolnienie-lekarskie
