Hello. Thank you for posting.

The higher dose flu vaccines may result in more of the mild side effects that can occur with standard-dose seasonal shots. Mild side effects can include pain, redness or swelling at the injection site, headache, muscle ache, and malaise. This typically lasts a day or two.

best,

Helena
