Avoid stress in the animals around the time of vaccination.
No information is available on the safety and efficacy of the concurrent use of this vaccine with any other except Duvaxyn EHV 1,4 and Duvaxyn T. It is therefore recommended that no other vaccines than these should be administered within 14 days before or after vaccination with the product.

Adverse reactions:
The occurence of adverse reactions after the first and second doses is low. After the third and subsequent doses, the incidence of adverse reactions, particularly local reactions, increases. Very commonly these reactions include visible swellings measuring less than 5 cm in diameter lasting for up to 1 day and mild, transient hyperthermia lasting up to 4 days. Common reactions include palpable, transient swellings and visible swellings measuring more than 5 cm in diameter which resolve within weeks and stiffness of the neck evident at between 2 to 4 days after vaccination. In rare occasions, abscessation may be observed. No information on microscopic features of the injection site reactions is available.
Hypersensitivity reactions to the vaccine may occur. In the event of an allergic reaction, immediate treatment should be given with a soluble glucocorticoid intravenously (e.g. dexamethasone sodium phosphate), adrenaline intramuscularly or antihistamine intramuscularly.
