Symptoms: Blood pressure increased, Cold sweat, Flushing, Headache, Injection site erythema
Clinical narrative: This case was reported by a healthcare professional and described the occurrence of flushing in a 29-year-old female subject who was vaccinated with FLUARIX (GlaxoSmithKline). The subject's medical history included reaction to MAXAIR. Concurrent medical conditions included asthma, breast feeding, hypertension and 3 months post-partum. Concurrent medications included Beta-blocker. On 10 October 2011 at 10:00 the subject received a dose of FLUARIX (.5 ml, unknown route, left arm). On 10 October 2011, 15 minutes after vaccination with FLUARIX, the subject experienced flushing, injection site redness, hotness at injection site, clamminess, elevated blood pressure (168/140) and headache. The subject was treated with TYLENOL and rested for 10 minutes. Her blood pressure continued to rise to 178/90 and then 190/95. She was taken by ambulance to the emergency room. The subject was treated with SOLU-MEDROL, BENADRYL and REGLAN. The medications lowered her blood pressure, but the headache continued for 24 hours then resolved. The subject was released from the emergency room on oral PEPCID, ZOFRAN, diphenhydramine hydrochloride and prednisone. The next day, 11 October 2011, the subject experienced systemic swelling, including swelling of hands and feet and neck swelling. Redness and hotness at injection site also continued. The healthcare professional considered the events were clinically significant (or requiring intervention). On 13 October 2011, the events were resolved. The healthcare professional considered the events were probably related to vaccination with FLUARIX.
