A seasonal flu vaccine is the best way to reduce the chances you will get seasonal influenza and spread it to others.
Before a vaccine is licensed in the USA, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviews it for safety and effectiveness. The CDC then reviews all studies again, as well as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Family Physicians. Every lot of vaccine is tested before administration to the public, and the FDA regularly inspects vaccine manufacturers' facilities.
Illicit drug use costs the United States approximately $181 billion every year.
According to the CDC, approximately 31.7% of the U.S. population has high low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad cholesterol" levels.
Approximately 25% of all reported medication errors result from some kind of name confusion.
