Vaccine Porcilis PRRS

Species

Swine.

Composition

One dose – 2 ml intramuscular or 0.2 ml (intradermal) contains: live, attenuated PRRS virus, strain DV.
Diluent (Diluvac Forte): Adjuvant:
– α-tocopherol acetate
– polysorbate 80,
- sodium chloride,
- potassium dihydrogen phosphate,
- disodium phosphate dihydrate,
– simethicone,
- distilled water.

Indications

Active immunization of clinically healthy pigs in an environment contaminated with PRRS virus, to reduce viremia caused by infection with European strains of PRRS virus.

Respiratory tropism is relevant for fattening pigs. In the clinical tests carried out, a significant improvement in the results of the exploitation was observed in the vaccinated pigs (reduction of morbidity due to PRRS infection, increase in daily gain and feed conversion) until the end of the period of
fattening.

For breeding pigs, tropism for the reproductive system is relevant. In vaccinated pigs, the increase in reproductive performances in environments contaminated with PRRS virus and the reduction of transplacental transmission of the virus, following the control infection, were observed.

The purpose of vaccination with Porcilis PRRS is to obtain a homogeneous and high immune status against the PRRS virus in a herd.
Immunity was demonstrated by control infection at 28 days post-vaccination. A duration of immunity of at least 24 weeks has been demonstrated.

Dosage and method of administration

The vaccine is reconstituted with the appropriate adjuvant diluent (only Diluvac Forte is used).

	Volume (ml) of diluent required for
Number of doses per vial	Intramuscular administration	Intradermal administration
10	20	2
25	50	5
50	100	10
100	200	20

Dosage: Intramuscular administration: 2 ml in the neck region.
Intradermal administration: 0.2 ml in the region of the neck, dorsally or on the sides, or along the muscles of the back, using a device for intradermal administration.
The formation of a small, transient intradermal nodule after intradermal administration is the indication that the vaccination technique was correct.

Vaccination schedule: A single dose is administered starting at 2 weeks of age. - Pigs for fattening: A single vaccination is sufficient to protect until slaughter. – Breeding pigs: For gilts, a (re)vaccination is recommended 2-4 weeks before farrowing. To maintain a high and homogeneous level of immunity, revaccination is recommended at regular intervals, either before each subsequent pregnancy or at 4-month intervals. Pregnant sows will only be vaccinated following a previous exposure to European PRRS virus infection.
It is recommended to vaccinate all target animals in a herd, starting from the lowest recommended age.
PRRS-seronegative animals newly introduced into the herd (eg replacement gilts from PRRS-negative herds) will be vaccinated before farrowing.
The lyophilisate can also be reconstituted with Porcilis M Hyo in fattening pigs of at least 4 weeks of age according to the recommendations below:

Porcilis PRRS + Porcilis M Hyo
10 doses + 20 ml
25 doses + 50 ml
50 doses + 100 ml
100 doses + 200 ml

Administer a single dose (2 ml) of Porcilis PRRS mixed with Porcilis M Hyo intramuscularly in the neck region.
Sterile syringes and needles, or clean intradermal equipment will be used.

Contraindications

It is not used in herds where the prevalence of the European PRRS virus has not been established by reliable diagnostic methods.

Waiting period

Zero days.
