Canigen DHPPi
Contra-indications, warnings, etc
Only healthy dogs should be vaccinated. The vaccine may not be effective in dogs incubating the disease at the time of vaccination.
Some animals may be immunologically incompetent and fail to respond to vaccination. Animals that have received the corresponding anti-serum or immunosuppressive drugs should not be vaccinated until an interval of at least 4 weeks has elapsed.
A diffuse swelling, up to 5 mm in diameter, may be observed at the site of injection. Occasionally this swelling may be hard and painful and last for up to 3 days post injection.
After subcutaneous administration with Canigen Rabies and/or Canigen Lepto 2, a transient palpable nodule may occasionally occur at the site of injection.
In the rare event of a hypersensitivity reaction occurring following vaccination, administer an antihistamine, corticosteroid or adrenaline, without delay and by the most immediate route.
After administration of an overdose, a response similar to that following a single dose may be seen. In some dogs the swelling may be more painful or may be observed for a longer period.
The canine parvovirus vaccine strain may be shed at very low levels for up to 8 days after inoculation. However there is no evidence of any reversion to virulence of the vaccine strain and therefore no need to separate unvaccinated dogs from contact with recently vaccinated individuals.
No information is available on the use of this vaccine with any other, except Canigen Lepto 2 or Canigen Rabies. These liquid vaccines can be used to reconstitute the freeze-dried Canigen DHPPi. It is recommended that no other immunological product should be administered within 14 days before or after vaccination with Canigen DHPPi.
Do not mix with any other medicinal product except Canigen Lepto 2 or Canigen Rabies.
The efficacy of the CDV, CAV2, CPV and CPi components of the vaccine may be reduced due to maternal antibody interference. However, the vaccine has been proved to be of benefit against virulent challenge in the presence of maternal antibody levels to CDV, CAV2, CPV and CPi that are likely to be encountered under field conditions.
Withdrawal Period
Not applicable
For animal treatment only. Keep out of reach and sight of children.
