Hi Delina,
First off, I am a nurse and worked in public health in an immunization program!. It is okay to get a flu shot if you have mild cold symptoms!. The flu shot IS NOT a live virus!. And it is okay to take Aleve!. If you need more information, check out the CDC's website!. They have mucho info on influenza and immunizations!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First off, you shouldn't get the flu shot when you have a cold!. Whoever administered the flu shot should've asked if you currently had a cold or anything!. If you said Yes, they should've recommended you not get the flu shot!.

Otherwise taking that alive stuff should be fine, even if I do think it's snake oil!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

you can take aleve with it!.!.however if you have a cold they shouldnt of given you the flu shot to begin with!. they prefer your body not to be ill on account of injection a live virus into you!.!.!.hmmmmmmWww@Answer-Health@Com
