Special Precautions

OVIVAC

Vaccinate ewes with Heptavac P Plus as an initial help via the colostrum, in the protection of their lambs against pasteurellosis and clostridial diseases (pulpy kidney, tetanus, braxy and blackleg).  

Immunise growing and store lambs after passive immunity wanes - two 2ml doses of Ovivac-P Plus, 4 to 6 weeks apart.  The course can be started from as early as three weeks of age.  


The economic impact of losses due to pasteurellosis and clostridial diseases (pulpy kidney, tetanus, braxy and blackleg) can be devastating.

Lamb deaths are only part of the loss.  Even surviving lambs are liable to suffer long term losses in condition and weight.  While they may look perfectly well, unseen damage to the lungs is common after pneumonia strikes and only becomes apparent when reduced performance leads to later or fewer finished lambs.

Dosage and Administration:
All lambs not previously vaccinated with Ovivac P Plus must receive two injections, each of 2.0 ml, separated by an interval of 4-6 weeks. Thereafter they must receive booster injections at intervals of not more than 12 months.
Ovivac P Plus should not be used in lambs less than 3 weeks of age.

LICENSED FOR LAMBS AND SHEEP ONLY.

Ovivac-P Plus contains antigens from four clostridial species and antigens from the most important serotypes of Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella trehalosi.
