Duration of immunity: 1 year after the primary vaccination course and 3 years after the last re-vaccination.
Dose to be administered and administration route

Reconstitute gently the vaccine in order to obtain a uniform suspension with limited foam formation.

After reconstitution of the lyophilisate with 0.5 ml or 1 ml of the solvent (depending on the presentation chosen), inject one dose of vaccine according to the following vaccination schedule:
Primary vaccination course:
- first injection: from 8 weeks of age,
- second injection: 3 to 4 weeks later.
Where high levels of maternal antibodies against rhinotracheitis, calicivirosis or panleucopenia components are expected to be present (e.g. in kittens of 9 to 12 weeks of age born from queens which were vaccinated before pregnancy and/or with known or suspected previous exposure to the pathogen(s)), the primary vaccination course should be delayed until 12 weeks of age.
Revaccination:
