Mechanism of action

The quadrivalent split vaccine contains inactivated viral antigens from two influenza A strains (H1N1 and H3N2) and two influenza B strains. When administered, these antigens trigger both humoral (antibody) and cell-mediated immune responses, enabling the body to recognize and neutralize circulating influenza viruses before infection occurs or to reduce disease severity if infection develops.
