Abstract
Education efforts that focus on the effectiveness and safety of influenza vaccination during pregnancy and the benefits of treating pregnant women with confirmed or suspected influenza with antiviral medications may be useful in improving pharmacists' support of pharmaceutical interventions to reduce the impact of influenza in pregnant women. Pharmacists' personal decisions regarding vaccination may be a marker for their overall assessment of risks and benefits and may influence their recommendations for pregnant patients.
