CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
TARGET SPECIES
Pigs (from 17 days of age until the end of fattening)
4.2
INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
For active immunisation of clinically healthy pigs at 17 days of age
and older
from farms affected with European (genotype 1) Porcine Reproductive
and
Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) to reduce
virus load in blood in seropositive animals under field conditions.
Under experimental challenge conditions in which only seronegative
animals
were included, it was demonstrated that vaccination reduces lung
lesions, virus
load in blood and lung tissues as well as negative effects of
infection on daily
weight gain. A significant reduction of the respiratory clinical signs
could
additionaly be demonstrated at the onset of immunity.
