SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
Only healthy dogs should be vaccinated. In particular, chronic
asymptomatic carriers should be
identified and treated before vaccination, with substances that do not
compromise immunological
responsiveness.
It is recommended that vaccinations are given at least one month
before the tick season.
As active babesia infection might interfere with the development of
protective immunity, it is
recommended to reduce exposure to ticks during the period of
vaccination.

Vaccination with Nobivac Piro does not prevent infection. As a
consequence a milder form of disease
caused by
_B. canis_
can occur. If mild babes
