PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Suspension for injection. Rosy liquid with sediment. 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Target species Cattle. 4.2 Indications for use, specifying the target species For active immunisation of cattle against: - bovine parainfluenza 3 virus, to reduce infection, - bovine respiratory syntytial virus, to reduce infection and clinical signs, - germs of Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica serotype A1, to reduce clinical signs and lung lesions. Onset of immunity: 3 weeks Duration of immunity: 6 months Safety and efficacy studies were performed in sero-negative calves. 4.3 Contraindications
Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to the active substances, to the adjuvants or to any of the excipients. 4.4 Special warnings for each target species Vaccinate healthy animals only. 4.5 Special precautions for use Special precautions for use in animals: Basic immunisation needs to be initiated on time, so that the protection is fully developed from the beginning of the risky period of the animal. Basic immunisation of calves needs to be completed before common stabling or during quarantine. It is recommended to vaccinate all animals in the breed, if vaccination is not contraindicated in some animals, so that the infectious burden was minimised. Failure to vaccinate each animal helps to maintain and transfer pathogens and development of the disease in the breed. The level of antibody responses may be reduced by maternal antibodies obtained from the mothers in calves up to 3 months of age. Respiratory infections in calves are often associated with poor hygiene practices. Therefore general enhancement of hygiene practices is important to ensure good immunisation effect in vaccinated animals. Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals: In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or the label to the physician. 4.6 Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness) Following vaccination a localised swelling may be observed very commonly at the injection site which relates to the adjuvant content. This swelling could reach up to 6 cm and usually subsides within 2 3 weeks after vaccination. There may be a common transient slight increase in body temperature lasting up to 3 days after vaccination. Anaphylactic-type reactions may occur very rarely after vaccination. In such cases, appropriate symptomatic treatment should be administered. The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention: - very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reactions) - 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) 4.7 Use during pregnancy, lactation or lay Do not use during pregnancy and lactation. 4.8 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. 4.9 Amounts to be administered and administration route
