1. Synagis has significantly reduced the incidence of RSV Bronchiolitis in infants. The immunization is recommended for infants who were born at less than 35 week's gestational age or who have chronic lung or heart disease.
2. RotaTeq is used for the prevention of rotovirus, not RSV
3. Relenza is used for the treatment of influenza, not RSV.
4. The immune globulin is used in situations for patients that are not able to have the synagis vaccine.
