Adverse reactions
A mild vaccination reaction can be observed very rarely in the form of transient, slight respiratory symptoms.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated )
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports).Administration of a 10-fold overdose does not result in symptoms different from those mentioned above.
Special warnings
Maternally derived antibodies (MDA) can interfere with the development of active immunity. Where it is likely that recent field infection or vaccination of the parent flock has stimulated a high antibody titre and consequently a high level of MDA, the timing of the vaccination programme should be planned accordingly.
Special precautions for use in animals
The vaccine strain can spread to unvaccinated chickens. Special precautions should be taken to avoid spreading of the vaccine strain to unvaccinated chickens. It is recommended to vaccinate all birds on a site at the same time.
Withdrawal period
Zero days
User Warnings
Personal protective equipment consisting of goggles and dust masks or a helmet with filtered air circulation should be worn when handling the veterinary medicinal product especially while vaccination according to the spraying method.
