Adverse reactions
A transient increase in body temperature (on average 1°C) is very common during the first 24 hours after vaccination. In individual pigs the temperature increase compared to pre-treatment may commonly exceed 2°C. This resolves spontaneously within 48 hours without treatment. Immediate mild hypersensitivity-like reactions may occur uncommonly after vaccination, resulting in transient clinical signs such as vomiting, diarrhoea or depression. These clinical signs normally resolve without treatment. Anaphylaxis may occur in very rare cases. In case of such reactions, appropriate treatment is recommended.
Local tissue reactions in the form of swelling at the injection site, which may be associated with local heat, redness and pain at palpation are very common and may last for up to 2 days (based on laboratory safety studies). The area of local tissue reactions is in general below 2 cm in diameter. In a laboratory study, a post-mortem examination of the injection site, performed 4 weeks after the administration of a single dose of the vaccine, revealed a mild inflammatory response, as evidenced by the absence of tissue necrosis and little fibrosis.
The frequency of possible adverse effects is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals 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).
A transient increase in body temperature (on average 0.8°C) was observed 4 hours after administration of a 2-fold overdose. This resolved spontaneously within 24 hours without treatment. Local tissue reaction in the form of swelling (below 2 cm in diameter) at the injection site was commonly observed and resolved within 2 days.
