Flu Vaccination Classification on Care Plan

Hello, i need some help. My Care Plan has a Classification column and im not sure what to put for the flu shot.

For example complete sig of Tylenol is :[TABLE=width: 990]

[TR]

[TD]acetaminophen (Tylenol) 650mg PO every six hours PRN for fever.[/TD]

[/TR]

[/TABLE]

And classificaiton is:

Antipyretic

Now for the Flu Vaccination this is my complete sig.

" flu vac (Fluarix Quad) 0.5 mL IM every friday"

My question is What is the Classification for Flu Shot? Would Supplement be ok?

    The flu vaccine is, quite simply, a vaccine. It is not a supplement, and it sounds like perhaps you should review the definition of supplement. Do you have access to a drug guide? You will find that one will be a big help in nursing school as well as while working as a nurse. And why is your patient receiving a flu vaccine every Friday? It's a once a year deal.
