ADVERSE REACTIONS
In laboratory studies and field trials:
Transient local reactions at the injection site were very commonly
observed after vaccination mainly
in the form of a hard, warm and sometimes painful swelling (diameter
up to 10 cm). These reactions
resolve spontaneously over a period of approximately 14–21 days
without any major consequence on
the general health status of the animals. Immediate systemic
hypersensitivity-like reactions were
commonly observed after vaccination, resulting in minor neurological
symptoms such as tremors
and/or excitation, which normally resolve within minutes without
requiring treatment. A transient
increase in body temperature, normally not exceeding 1 °C, was very
commonly observed until 2 days
18
after vaccination. In individual animals, an increase of rectal
temperature of 2.5 °C lasting less than
24 hours was uncommonly observed.

Special warnings for each target species
From the data provided, it can be concluded that a single dose regimen
of vaccination breaks through
up to medium levels and double dose regimen through medium to high
levels of maternally derived
antibodies in piglets.
No data are available on the use of the vaccine in breeding boars.
