  4. INDICATION(S)


    For passive protection of piglets via colostrum after active immunisation of sows and gilts to reduce the clinical signs and lesions of progressive and non-progressive atrophic rhinitis, as well as to reduce weight loss associated with Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida infections during the fattening period.


    Challenge studies have demonstrated that passive immunity lasts until piglets are 6 weeks of age while in clinical field trials, the beneficial effects of vaccination (reduction in nasal lesion score and weight loss) are observed until slaughter.

  5. CONTRAINDICATIONS


    Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to the active substances, to the adjuvants or to any of the excipients.


  6. ADVERSE REACTIONS


    Common adverse reactions:


    • Transient local reactions may occur after the administration of one dose of vaccine. A transient slight swelling of less than 2 to 3 cm in diameter can occur at the injection site which may last up to five days and occasionally up to two weeks.


    • A transient increase in body temperature of about 0.7°C can occur during the first 6 hours after injection. An increase of rectal temperature up to 1.5ºC may occur. This rectal temperature increase is spontaneously resolved within 24 hours without treatment.


      Very rare adverse reactions:


    • Anaphylactic type reactions have been reported in spontaneous reports and appropriate symptomatic treatment is recommended.


      The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:

    • very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))

    • common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated )

    • uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)

    • rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)

    • very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports).


    If you notice any side effects, even those not already listed in this package leaflet or you think that the medicine has not worked, please inform your veterinary surgeon.

    Revaccination: a single injection should be given 3-4 weeks prior to each subsequent farrowing.

    Shelf life after first opening the immediate packaging: 10 hours stored at 15 ºC to 25 ºC.


  12. SPECIAL WARNING(S)


    Special precautions for use in animals: Only healthy animals should be vaccinated.


    Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals:

    In case of accidental self-injection only a minor injection site reaction is expected. Pregnancy: Can be used during pregnancy.

    Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction:

    No information is available on the safety and efficacy of this vaccine when used with any other veterinary medicinal product. A decision to use this vaccine before or after any other veterinary medicinal product therefore needs to be made on a case by case basis.


    Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes):

    No adverse reactions other than already mentioned under point “Adverse reactions” can be expected, except for an increase of rectal temperature up to 2ºC. This rectal temperature increase is spontaneously resolved within 24 hours without treatment.

    Discoloration of muscular fibres of the inoculation site (0.5 cm wide x 2 cm long) may be observed at necropsy in 10% of animals. This discoloration is attributable to aluminium hydroxide and may be observed up to seven weeks after the injection of a double dose of vaccine.


    Incompatibilities:

    Do not mix with any other veterinary medicinal product.
