INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
Breeding females: For active immunisation of breeding females from
farms
affected with European PRRS virus to reduce reproductive disorders,
incidence
and duration of viraemia, transplacental virus transmission, virus
tissue load and
clinical signs in the offspring associated with infection with strains
of PRRS virus.
Under laboratory conditions, vaccination of females reduced the
negative impact
of PRRS virus infection on piglet performance (mortality and weight
gain) within
the first 28 days of life.
Onset of immunity: 30 days after vaccination.

Duration of immunity: 16 weeks after vaccination.
Pigs from 4 weeks of age: For active immunisation of pigs from farms
affected
with European PRRS virus to reduce clinical signs associated with a
PRRS virus
infection, the incidence and duration of viraemia and the duration of
virus
shedding by infected animals. Under experimental conditions, it was
demonstrated that vaccination reduces the virus tissue load in the
lungs. Under
field conditions, where a PRRSV infection occurred during the
fattening period, a
