Should I get the flu shot or the nasal spray?

Flu FAQs | Dr. Sam | Humana
The flu shot is an inactivated vaccine (containing a killed virus) while the nasal-spray flu vaccine (sometimes called LAIV for live attenuated influenza vaccine) contains a weakened live virus. Since the flu shot is made from the killed influenza virus, it can't give you the flu. You could have side effects from the flu shot, however. These might include a sore arm, fever, and body aches, but they'll last for only a day or so and will be much milder than flu symptoms.

Are dDAVP tablets as effective as the nasal spray?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 3
effective doses, dDAVP tablets are not less expensive than dDAVP nasal spray. They are more convenient and often as effective as the spray. However, in some patients, their effects are more erratic owing to variations in absorption from the gut. This variability sometimes can be prevented or reduced by taking the tablets on an empty stomach, but other times it is necessary to go back to the nasal spray.
