Can person with hypertension and heart disease , taking medicine , olmesartan . take flu shot ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flu shot: There is no problem with you taking the flu shot with your medical disorders and the medication you're taking. I'm sure your physician would want you to take the flu shot but I'm not sure when he/ she recommends you take it. I favor the month of October.
