Lyophilisate and solvent for suspension for injection.
Lyophilisate: white to yellowish tablet.
Solvent: transparent homogenous liquid.
Cattle (calves and adult cows).
4.2 Indications for use, specifying the target species
For the active immunisation of cattle from 3 months of age against Bovine Herpes Virus type 1
(BoHV-1) to reduce the clinical signs of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) and field virus
excretion.
Onset of immunity: 21 days after completion of the basic vaccination scheme.
Duration of immunity: 6 months after completion of the basic vaccination scheme.
Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients.
4.5 Special precautions for use
Special precautions for use in animals
Vaccinate healthy animals only.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to
animals
4.6 Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness)
A slight increase in body temperature up to 1° C is common within 4 days following vaccination.
Occasionally, an increase in rectal temperature up to 1.63º C in adult cows and up to 2.18º C in calves
may be observed. This transient rise in temperature is spontaneously resolved within 48 hours without
treatment and it is not related to a febrile process.
A transient inflammation at the inoculation site is common in cattle within 72 hours post-vaccination.
This slight swelling lasts for less than 24 hours in most cases.
Vaccination might exceptionally cause hypersensitivity reactions. In such cases, an appropriate
symptomatic treatment should be administered.
4.7 Use during pregnancy, lactation or lay
Can be used 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
Cattle: from the age of 3 months onwards.
Reconstitute the lyophilised tablet with the entire contents of the enclosed solvent to obtain a
suspension for injection.
Recommended vaccination programme:
The recommended initial dose is 1 injection of 2 ml of the reconstituted vaccine per animal. The
animal should be revaccinated 3 weeks later with the same dose.
Thereafter a single booster dose of 2 ml should be administered every six months.
The method of administration is by intramuscular route, in the neck muscles. The injections should be
preferably administered on the alternate sides of the neck. The solvent should be allowed to warm to a
temperature between 15 ºC to 20ºC before reconstitution of the lyophilised tablet. Shake well before
use. Avoid the introduction of contamination during reconstitution and use. Use only sterile needles
and syringes for administration.
4.10 Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes), if necessary
No adverse reactions except those mentioned in section 4.6 were observed after the administration of a
10-fold vaccine dose.
Pharmacotherapeutic group: live bovine vaccines against IBR, ATCvet code: QI02AD01.
To stimulate active immunity against bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BoHV-1) in cattle. The vaccine
contains a BoHV-1 strain (CEDDEL strain) that is double deleted within the genes coding for the gE
surface protein and the tk enzyme. The tk deletion is related to reduced viral neurotropism andreduced
establishment of latency. The absence of the gene coding for the gE surface protein entails that the
vaccine does not elicit antibodies to glycoprotein E of BoHV-1 (marker vaccine). This enables
discrimination between cattle vaccinated with this vaccine and cattle infected with BoHV-1 field virus
or vaccinated with conventional non-marker BoHV-1 vaccines. Diagnostic tools designed to detect gE
antibodies should be suitable for this purpose. Animals exposed to gE surface protein will test positive
(eg cattle infected with BoHV-1 field virus or vaccinated with conventional non-marker BoHV-1
vaccines) but unexposed animals will test negative (ie non-infected animals, including those
vaccinated with Hiprabovis IBR Marker Live). Animals vaccinated with Hiprabovis IBR Marker live
will test positive (alongside cattle infected with BoHV-1 field virus or vaccinated with conventional
non-marker BoHV-1 vaccines) when samples are analysed in tests based on the identification of
antibodies to any other BoHV-1 antigens.
