N/A
FMD vaccine is not recommended for the animals that are clinically sick or severely debilitated or under stress.
Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) vaccine is an inactivated, trivalent viral vaccine containing virus type O, A & Asia-1. The inactivated antigen is purified, concentrated, adjuvanted and ready for use. It is adjuvanted with mineral oil and Thiomersal. Mineral oil is added as adjuvant instead of Aluminium Hydroxide to ensure enhanced immune response and stability. World Animal Health Organization (OIE) recommended tissue culture FMD vaccine that has high immunogenicity and safety profile. It acts by stimulation of predominantly humoral immune response in the vaccinated animals. Potency of the vaccine is ≥3 PD50/dose. Protective immune response is induced 14 days after vaccination.
Generally no significant side effects are noticed after intramuscular route vaccination. However, swellings at the injection site may occur after vaccination. It usually resolves within few days but may last few weeks in some cases. A slight increase in rectal temperature of up to 1.2 °C for 4 days may appear in some cases.
There is no contraindication of the vaccine for pregnant animals
Infected and animals at the incubation period of disease, should not be vaccinated. The animals which are infected and suspected of being infected should not be vaccinated. Open vials should be used within 2 hours. Part-used vials of vaccine must be disposed.
The vaccine should be stored and transported between +2 0 C and +8 0 C. Antigenicity of the vaccine deteriorates if the temperature is allowed to rise above this range. Do not freeze the vaccine. Keep out of the reach of children.
