Description

Vibrovax® vaccine is used for the prevention of infertility and abortion in cattle caused by Vibriosis. After a comprehensive Vibrovax® vaccination program, the effects of vibriosis will be minimised. However, a continuing vaccination program for bulls and heifers is highly recommended.

Approved Uses

For the prevention of Bovine Venereal Campylobacteriosis (Vibriosis). It is suitable for use in both beef and dairy cattle.

Key Features
Vibrovax® vaccine has several unique benefits.

Heifers can be vaccinated after 18 months of age with a single 5mL dose
(2 doses are required if the program begins before this time).

An annual dose of 2mL or the convenience of a 5mL dose every two years will provide ongoing immunity against vibriosis.
Dosage and Administration
The vaccine should be injected subcutaneously. Veterinary advice should be sought before commencing a vaccination program

The most comprehensive program involves the vaccination of all breeding animals including bulls, cows and heifers.

Bulls

Initially, all bulls should be given two 5mL doses 4-6 weeks apart. Vaccination should be timed so that the second dose is given about six weeks before joining.

After this initial vaccination program, an annual dose of 5mL each year will ensure they remain protected. Regular vaccination of bulls before joining is an important means of controlling the disease.

Heifers (younger than 18 months)

Initially heifers should be given two 5mL doses 4-6 weeks apart. Vaccination should be timed so that the second dose is given about six weeks before joining.

Cows (older than 18 months)

Initially, cows should be given a 5mL dose. After this initial dose an annual dose of 2mL, or a single dose of 5mL every two years will ensure they remain protected. The vaccine should be given 4-6 weeks before joining.

Other control measures such as segregation of infected cattle, use of young clean bulls and culling of barren cows should also be practised.
Additional Information
Site Reactions. Vibrovax® vaccine is an oily adjuvant vaccine so there may be some swelling at the site of vaccination, but this will gradually disappear.
