6. ADVERSE REACTIONS
Common adverse reactions:
A slight increase in body temperature up to 1 °C is common within 4 days following vaccination. Commonly, an increase in rectal temperature up to 1.63 °C in adult cows and up to 2.18 °C in calves may be observed. This transient rise in temperature is spontaneously resolved within 48 hours without treatment and it is not related to a febrile process.
A transient inflammation at the inoculation site is common in cattle within 72 hours post-vaccination. This slight swelling lasts for less than 24 hours in most cases.
Very rare adverse reactions:
Vaccination might very rarely cause hypersensitivity reactions. In such cases, an appropriate symptomatic treatment should be administered.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
-
– very common (more than 1 in 10 animals displaying adverse reactions during the course of one treatment)
-
– common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals)
-
– uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals)
-
– rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals)
-
– very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports).
If you notice any serious effects or other effects not mentioned in this package leaflet, please inform your veterinary surgeon.

9. ADVICE ON CORRECT ADMINISTRATION
Reconstitute the lyophilisate with the entire contents of the supplied solvent to obtain a suspension for injection.

The recommended initial dose is 1 injection of 2 ml of the reconstituted vaccine per animal. The animal should be revaccinated 3 weeks later with the same dose. Thereafter a single booster dose of 2 ml should be administered every six months.
The method of administration is by intramuscular route, in the neck muscles. The injections should be preferably administered on the alternate sides of the neck. The solvent should be allowed to warm to a temperature between 15 and 20 °C before reconstitution of the lyophilisate. Shake well before
