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 the national competent authority via
the national reporting system. See the package leaflet for respective contact details.
Vaccinate healthy animals only.

Special precautions for safe use in the target species:
Calves should be vaccinated at least 7 days before transport, mixing of animals of
different origins, housing or any other event which may cause the animals to be
stressed or exposed to new infections. Calves are usually most susceptible during
early autumn. The vaccine will protect animals for at least 17 weeks, which will cover
the period of risk from pasteurellosis.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal
product to animals:
Ensure that the method of restraint, handling, and administration, e.g. by the use of
guarded needles, minimises the risk of accidental injection/self-injection.
In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the
package leaflet or the label to the physician.
To the user:
This veterinary medicinal product contains mineral oil. Accidental injection/self-
injection may result in severe pain and swelling, particularly if injected into a joint or
finger, and in rare cases could result in the loss of the affected finger if prompt
medical attention is not given. If you are accidentally injected with this veterinary
medicinal product, seek prompt medical advice even if only a very small amount is
injected and take the package leaflet with you. If pain persists for more than 12 hours
after medical examination, seek medical advice again.
To the physician:
This veterinary medicinal product contains mineral oil. Even if small amounts have
been injected, accidental injection with this veterinary medicinal product can cause
intense swelling, which may, for example, result in ischaemic necrosis and even the
loss of a digit. Expert, PROMPT, surgical attention is required and may necessitate
early incision and irrigation of the injected area, especially where there is
involvement of finger pulp or tendon.
Special precautions for the protection of the environment:
Not applicable.
Safety and efficacy data are available which demonstrate that this vaccine can be
administered on the same day but not mixed with Rispoval RS.
No information is available on the safety and efficacy of this vaccine when used with
any other veterinary medicinal product except the product mentioned above. 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.
Store in a refrigerator (2 °C - 8 °C).
Do not freeze.
Protect from light.
Zero days.
