NeuroTalk Support Groups - No FluMist for People with Multiple Sclerosis

"I'm sorry to say, however, that those of us with MS should NOT get their flu vaccine in the form of FluMist, the nasal flu vaccine spray. FluMist is a live-virus vaccine, which uses an attenuated form of the flu virus - in fact, the generic name of FluMist is LAIV (Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccine). People with MS that are on immunosuppressants, such as corticosteroids (Solu-Medrol) or Tysabri, or any of the immunoglobulin preparations (such as IVIG), are especially susceptible to developing influenza from FluMist."
