Pediatric kidney transplantation part 64




Flu shot

Transplant team recommend influenza vaccine,  also called "flu shot", for transplant patients and their families every year. After kidney transplant, children and household members should get the injectable (needle) flu vaccine and not the nasal spray.

Vaccines and travel

Travelling away from home may mean your child needs extra immunizations. It is best to get specific advice about this from the transplant team and/or a travel clinic.
