Progressis vet.
ATC code
Species
Pigs (sows and gilts).
Indications
Reduction of the reproductive disorders caused by Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus (European strain) in a contaminated environment: vaccination reduces the number of early farrowings and the number of still-births.
Dose to be administered and administration route
One dose of 2 ml is administered by deep intramuscular route, in the neck muscles behind the ear, according to the following vaccination scheme:
Primary vaccination:
Gilts:
2 injections 3-4 weeks apart, at least 3 weeks before mating.
Sows:
2 injections 3-4 weeks apart (vaccination of all the sows of the herd within a short period is recommended).
Revaccination:
One injection at 60-70 days of each gestation, as of the first gestation following the primary vaccination.
Apply usual aseptic procedures. The use of a multi-dosing syringe is recommended.
Adverse reactions
Vaccination may induce a transient oedema (at most 3 cm) lasting generally less than one week and small local reaction (granulomas), without any effect on the health and the reproductive performance of the animal. Larger reactions (up to 7 cm diameter) have been observed occasionally after frequently repeated revaccinations. Vaccination may rarely cause hypersensitivity reactions. In such cases, an appropriate symptomatic treatment should be carried out.
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).
