Summary for the public


What is Porcilis Porcoli?

Porcilis Porcoli and Porcilis Porcoli Diluvac Forte are vaccines for use in pigs. Porcilis Porcoli is an emulsion for injection and Porcilis Porcoli Diluvac Forte is a suspension for injection. Both products contain the active substances F4ab, F4ac, F5, F6, and LT toxoid.


What is Porcilis Porcoli used for?

Both types of Porcilis Porcoli are used to immunise piglets to reduce death and clinical signs of enterotoxicosis caused by E. coli bacteria during the first days of their life. Enterotoxicosis is a reaction in the intestines to toxins produced by some bacteria.  Porcilis Porcoli is used to immunise against E. coli which have the adhesins (surface components) F4ab (K88ab), F4ac (K88ac), F5 (K99) or F6 (987P). The vaccine is given to sows (female pigs) only. Their piglets then become immunised when they drink the colostrum (first milk).

Both types of Porcilis Porcoli are given as a dose of 2 ml by intramuscular (into a muscle) injection to female pigs. The vaccine is given in the neck in the area behind the ear. Female pigs that have not been vaccinated should be given two injections with an interval of six weeks between them. To maintain the immunity, a single injection should be given before each subsequent farrowing (giving birth to the piglets). It is preferable to vaccinate female pigs during the second half of their pregnancy, but not within two weeks before the expected date of farrowing.


How does Porcilis Porcoli work?

Porcilis Porcoli contains adhesins that are found on the surface of E. coli bacteria. When the sow is injected, this small exposure helps the pig’s immune system to recognise and attack the E. coli bacteria. When exposed to any of these bacteria later in life, the pig will either not become infected or have a much less serious infection. This immunity is passed onto the sow’s piglets through her colostrum.


How has the effectiveness of Porcilis Porcoli been studied?

The Porcilis Porcoli vaccines (or parts of the vaccines) have been studied in several trials in pregnant pigs of various breeds. These pigs were given two injections of the vaccine and then the litters of these pigs, as well as litters where the mother had not been vaccinated (controls), were exposed to E. coli containing the adhesins or LT toxin present in the vaccine. The main measure of effectiveness was the percentage cumulative mortality (overall death rate) of the piglets.


What benefit has Porcilis Porcoli shown during the studies?

Porcilis Porcoli reduced the death rate in all the studies when compared with the control piglets.


What are the side effects of Porcilis Porcoli?

Porcilis Porcoli can cause mild, temporary clinical reactions (fever, lethargy, reduced food intake) during the first 24 hours after vaccination. There may be a swelling at the injection site, for up to 6 weeks after vaccination with Porcilis Porcoli, but only up to 2 weeks after vaccination with Porcilis Porcoli Diluvac Forte. Abscesses around the injection site may occur frequently with Porcilis Porcoli.


What are the precautions for the person who gives the medicine or comes into contact with the animal?

Porcilis Porcoli contains mineral oil. Accidental injection may cause severe pain and swelling, particularly if injected into a joint or finger – rarely causing the loss of a finger. If someone is accidentally injected with this product, they must seek immediate medical advice even if only a very small amount is injected. The Package Leaflet should be taken to the doctor. If pain persists for more than 12 hours after medical examination, the doctor should be contacted again.


Why has Porcilis Porcoli been approved?

The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) agreed that the benefits of Porcilis Porcoli, to reduce death and clinical signs of enterotoxicosis caused by E. coli bacteria, are greater than any risks. They recommended that Porcilis Porcoli should be given a marketing authorisation. The benefit-risk balance may be found in module 6 of this EPAR.


Other information about Porcilis Porcoli:

The European Commission granted a marketing authorisation valid throughout the European Union for Porcilis Porcoli to Intervet International B.V. on 29 February 1996. Information on the prescription status of this product may be found on the outer package.

Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to
animals
To the user:
This product contains mineral oil. Accidental injection/self injection may result in severe pain and
swelling, particularly if injected into a joint or finger, and in rare cases could result in the loss of the
affected finger if prompt medical attention is not given.
If you are accidentally injected with this product, seek prompt medical advice even if only a very
small amount is injected and take the package leaflet with you.
If pain persists for more than 12 hours after medical examination, seek medical advice again.
To the physician:
This product contains mineral oil. Even if small amounts have been injected, accidental injection with
this product can cause intense swelling, which may, for example, result in ischaemic necrosis and even
the loss of a digit. Expert, PROMPT, surgical attention is required and may necessitate early incision
and irrigation of the injected area, especially where there is involvement of finger pulp or tendon.
4.6 Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness)
Mild, transient clinical reactions (fever, lethargy) may occur in the first 24 hours after vaccination. For
some weeks after vaccination a swelling may be present at the site of injection. Local tissue reactions
in the form of abscesses may frequently occur. Six weeks after vaccination these local reactions are
considerably decreased.
4.7 Use during pregnancy and lactation
Can be used during pregnancy.
4.8 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
No information is available on the safety and efficacy from concurrent use of this vaccine with any
other. It is therefore recommended that no other vaccine should be administered concurrently with the
product.
4.9 Amounts to be administered and administration route
Before using the vaccine allow it to reach room temperature (15-25C) and shake vigorously before
use. Use sterile syringes and needles.
Intramuscular injection in sows and gilts of 2 ml per animal in the neck in the area behind the ear.
Vaccination scheme:
Basic vaccination: Sows and gilts which have not been vaccinated with the product should be given
two injections with an interval of six weeks.
Revaccination: A single injection should be given prior to each farrowing. Generally speaking this
means every 5 to 6 months.
It is preferable to vaccinate sows and gilts during the second half of the pregnancy, but not within two
weeks before the expected date of farrowing.
4.10 Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes), if necessary

8. DOSAGE FOR EACH SPECIES, ROUTE(S) AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Intramuscular injection in sows and gilts of 2 ml per animal in the neck in the area behind the ear.
Vaccination scheme:
Basic vaccination : Sows and gilts which have not been vaccinated with the product should be given two
injections with an interval of six weeks.
Revaccination : A single revaccination should be carried out prior to each farrowing. Generally speaking
this means every 5 to 6 months.
It is preferable to vaccinate sows and gilts during the second half of the pregnancy, but not within two
weeks before the expected date of farrowing.
9. ADVICE ON CORRECT ADMINISTRATION
Before using the vaccine allow it to reach room temperature (15-25C) and shake vigorously before use.
Use sterile syringes and needles.
10. WITHDRAWAL PERIOD
Zero days.
11. SPECIAL STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
Store in a refrigerator (+2°C to +8°C). Do not freeze. Protect from light.
Shelf-life after first opening: 3 hours.
12. SPECIAL WARNING(S)
No information is available on the safety and efficacy from concurrent use of this vaccine with any other.
It is therefore recommended that no other vaccine should be administered concurrently with the product.
Do not mix with any other product.
In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the package insert or
label to the physician.
To the user:
This product contains mineral oil. Accidental injection/self injection may result in severe pain
and swelling, particularly if injected into a joint or finger, and in rare cases could result in the loss of
the affected finger if prompt medical attention is not given.
If you are accidentally injected with this product, seek prompt medical advice even if only a very
small amount is injected and take the package leaflet with you.
If pain persists for more than 12 hours after medical examination, seek medical advice again.
To the physician:
This product contains mineral oil. Even if small amounts have been injected, accidental injection with
this product can cause intense swelling, which may, for example, result in ischaemic necrosis and even
the loss of a digit. Expert, PROMPT, surgical attention is required and may necessitate early incision
and irrigation of the injected area, especially where there is involvement of finger pulp or tendon.
