Icterohaemorrhagiae;
Onset of immunity:
The onset of immunity has been demonstrated from 3 weeks after the primary
vaccination for CDV, CAV-2 and CPV, 4 weeks for CAV-1 and CPiV, 5 weeks for
Canicola and 2 weeks for Icterohaemorrhagiae.
Duration of immunity:
After the primary vaccination course, the duration of immunity lasts for one year for
all components.
In the duration of immunity studies one year after the basic vaccination scheme there
was no significant difference between vaccinated and control dogs in viral excretion
for CPiV and CAV-2, in reduction of kidney colonisation for
Icterohaemorrhagiae, nor in renal lesions and urine shedding for L. Canicola.
After the annual booster, the duration of immunity lasts for 3 years for CDV, CAV-1,
CAV-2 and CPV.
For CAV-2, the duration of immunity after the annual booster was not established by
challenge, and is based on the presence of CAV-2 antibodies 3 years after the
booster vaccination.
Maternally derived antibodies may in some cases influence the immune
response to vaccination. In such cases, a third injection is recommended from
15 weeks of age.
Re-vaccinations:
One booster injection of a single dose should be given one year after the
primary vaccination course.
Subsequent vaccinations are carried out at intervals of up to three years.
Annual revaccination is required for CPiV and Leptospira components,
therefore a single dose of the Virbac vaccine against CPiV and Leptospira can
be used annually.
The appearance of the reconstituted product is slightly pinkish beige.
None.

Appropriate symptomatic treatment should be administered without delay.
Reporting adverse events is important. It allows continuous safety monitoring of a
veterinary medicinal product. Reports should be sent, preferably via a
veterinarian, to either the marketing authorisation holder or its local representative
or the national competent authority via the national reporting system. See the
package leaflet for respective contact details.
Vaccinate healthy animals only.
The presence of maternally derived antibodies (puppies from vaccinated females)
may in some cases interfere with the vaccination. Therefore the vaccination scheme
should be adapted accordingly (see section 3.9).

Special precautions for safe use in the target species:
After vaccination the live viral vaccinal strains (CAV-2, CPV) can be spread to
unvaccinated animals without any pathological effect for these in-contact animals.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal
product to animals:
In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the
package leaflet or the label to the physician.
Special precautions for the protection of the environment:
Not applicable.
No information is available on the safety and efficacy of this vaccine when used with

A decision to use this vaccine before or after any other veterinary medicinal product
therefore needs to be made on a case by case basis.
