Stellamune Once
Contra-indications, warnings, etc
Do not vaccinate pregnant or lactating animals.
Hypersensitivity reactions, including shock and death may occur in very rare cases. Appropriate treatment (for example glucocorticoid intravenously or adrenaline intramuscularly) should be administered.
Administration of the vaccine may be followed by a mild, transient reaction at the injection site up to 2.5cm which resolves within two days (incidence 16%). Transient increases in rectal temperature can be observed for up to four days post vaccination.
As part of the immune reaction following vaccination, inflammatory cell infiltration and/or fibrosis may occur in the muscle tissue at the injection site, lasting for at least 14 days.
No information is available on the concurrent use of this vaccine with any other. It is therefore recommended that no other vaccine should be administered within 14 days before or after vaccination with Stellamune Once.
Injection site reactions observed after the administration of a single overdose are similar to those following a dose of vaccine. A percentage of animals (approximately 27%) vaccinated with an overdose may develop a palpable injection site reaction of up to 3cm in diameter that resolves within two days.
Withdrawal period
Zero days.
Operator Warning
To the user
This product contains mineral oil.
Accidental injection/self injection may result in severe pain and swelling, particularly if injected into a joint or finger, and in rare cases could result in the loss of the affected finger if prompt medical attention is not given.
If you are accidentally injected with this product, seek prompt medical advice even if only a very small amount is injected and take the package insert with you. If pain persists for more than 12 hours after medical examination, seek medical advice again.
To the doctor
This product contains mineral oil. Even if very small amounts have been injected, accidental injection with this oil-based product can cause intense swelling which may, for example, result in ischemic necrosis and the loss of a digit. Expert, PROMPT, surgical attention is required and may necessitate early incision and irrigation of the injected area, especially where there is involvement of finger pulp or tendon.
