4.1
TARGET SPECIES
Pigs (for fattening)
4.2
INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
For active immunisation of pigs from 3 weeks of age in a PRRS virus
contaminated
environment, in order to reduce viraemia associated with European PRRS
virus
strains (genotype 1) infection.
Onset of immunity: 3 weeks post vaccination
Duration of immunity: 24 weeks post vaccination
In a laboratory trial in seronegative piglets vaccinated at the age of
32 days, a
reduction of titre and overall nasal shedding was observed after a
challenge 5 weeks
after vaccination.

been
established using reliable diagnostic methods.

SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
Vaccinate healthy animals only.
4.5
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Special precautions for use in animals
Care should be taken to avoid the introduction of the vaccine strain
into an area
where PRRS virus is not already present. The vaccine strain is
excreted and thus
may infect the susceptible pigs in contacts with vaccinated animals
for at least 7
weeks. To avoid this infection, it is advised to vaccinate all target
pigs within a herd
