Summary

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the efficacy and immunologic effects of a non-pharmacological exercise intervention (push-ups) compared to an oral NSAID (ibuprofen) and an oral placebo to decrease local injection site inflammation symptoms of delayed pain, erythema, and edema and any impact on serologic antibody immune response after influenza vaccine receipt.

  • Immune System and Related Disorders

Interventions

DRUG

Ibuprofen

The participants will take their first dose of the study drug immediately after influenza vaccine receipt. The medication will be blinded and dispensed by a research pharmacist. The participants will receive instructions on the dosing, frequency and a recommendation to take with food or milk and will be provided a snack with their first dose.

BEHAVIORAL

Compound Exercise of Push-ups

The participants will perform an exercise intervention of push-ups as immediately as possible but no more than 15 minutes after influenza vaccine receipt. The number of pushups performed will be at least 80% of the participants last Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) score in one session. The number of pushups will be recorded. A baseline lactate fingerstick blood specimen will be collected with either the serology sample (if possible) or from the hand opposite the vaccine receipt arm prior to performing pushups and a second finger stick sample within 3-8 minutes, but no more than 15 minutes after vaccine receipt.

DRUG

oral placebo

The participants will take their first dose of the study drug immediately after influenza vaccine receipt. The medication will be blinded and dispensed by a research pharmacist. The participants will receive instructions on the dosing, frequency and a recommendation to take with food or milk and will be provided a snack with their first dose.
