Clinical information

Inmeva, Suspension for Injection — SPC Details

Source: VMD Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC). Last updated 26 Mar 2026.

For active immunization of animals to reduce clinical signs (abortion, stillbirth, early
mortality and hyperthermia) caused by
Salmonella
animals.
Vaccination covers the whole gestation period, when administered according to
section 4.9.

Revised: February 2025
MA split from NI MA following AN: 01482/2024Page 2 of 5

For use in ewes from 5 months of age onwards.
Dose: 2 ml by subcutaneous injection, behind the shoulder in the rib area (lateral
thoracic region).
Basic vaccination:
Animals should receive 2 vaccine doses with an interval of 3 weeks. The first dose
should be administered at least 5 weeks before artificial insemination or mating;
administer the second dose 3 weeks after the first dose.
Revaccination: a single booster dose (2 ml) should be administered 2 weeks before
each artificial insemination or mating, but not later than 1 year after initial basic
vaccination.
Shake well before use and occasionally during administration.
Allow the vaccine to reach room temperature (15 - 25 ºC) before administration.
Administer under aseptic conditions. Only sterile syringes and needles should be
used.

Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to the active substances, to the adjuvants or
to any of the excipients.

A palpable local reaction at the injection site, which may appear approximately 1
week post-vaccination, occurred very commonly in studies. In most cases, the
reaction is slight or moderate and subsides within 2 weeks without treatment. In
some isolated cases, these reactions can reach up to 6 cm but rapidly decrease in
diameter within 2 days without need for treatment.
An increase in body temperature up to 1.0 ºC occurred very commonly 1 day after
vaccination in studies. This slight increase subsided spontaneously within 24 hours.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports).

Vaccinate healthy animals only.
In farms with recurring reproductive disorders caused by
Salmonella
within the flock.

Special precautions for use in animals
Not applicable.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal

any other veterinary medicinal product therefore needs to be made on a case by
case basis.
