Key Features Helps prevent respiratory disease caused by equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) Modified-live EHV-1 component triggers a more effective immune response than killed vaccines Safe in pregnant mares Convenient, small-volume dose (1 mL) Low incidence of injection-site reactions such as swelling or stiffness Packaging Available in single-dose packets with syringes, and 1- and 5-dose vials. Dosage and Administration General Directions: Vaccination of all horses on the premises is recommended to enhance herd immunity. Aseptically rehydrate vaccine with sterile diluent supplied, shake well, and administer 1 mL intramuscularly. Appropriate preparation of the inoculation site is advised to prevent introduction of bacterial contaminants. Primary Vaccination: Healthy horses 3 months of age or older should receive 2 doses administered 3–4 weeks apart. Foals should be vaccinated when maternal antibodies have declined, generally at three (3) months of age. If vaccinated earlier, foals should receive the two (2) dose series after reaching three (3) months of age. Pregnant mares should be vaccinated after the second month of pregnancy. Revaccination: Revaccination every three (3) months with a single dose is recommended. Good animal husbandry and herd health management practices should be employed. Precautions Store at 2°–7° C. Prolonged exposure to higher temperatures and/or direct sunlight may adversely affect potency. Do not freeze. Use entire contents when first opened. Sterilized syringes and needles should be used to administer this vaccine. Do not sterilize with chemicals because traces of disinfectant may inactivate the vaccine. Burn container and all unused contents. Do not vaccinate within 21 days before slaughter. Contains gentamicin as preservative. As with many vaccines, anaphylaxis may occur after use. Initial antidote of epinephrine is recommended and should be followed with appropriate supportive therapy. This product has been shown to be efficacious in healthy animals. A protective immune response may not be elicited if animals are incubating an infectious disease, are malnourished or parasitized, are stressed due to shipment or environmental conditions, are otherwise immunocompromised, or the vaccine is not administered in accordance with label directions.
