Adverse Reactions
A transient local swelling at the injection site was very commonly observed. Usually, the local swelling does not measure more than 5 cm in diameter and disappears within a few to 6 days post vaccination. A transient increase in rectal temperature during up to 2 days following dosing not exceeding 1.7°C was commonly observed. These clinical signs usually resolve with no need for treatment.
Rarely, stiff gait, anorexia and lethargy have been reported. Hypersensitivity reactions may occur in very rare cases. In case of such reactions, appropriate treatment is recommended.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals displaying adverse reaction(s) during the course of one treatment)
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports
