Suspension of living spores of an uncapsulated avirulent strain (Sterne 34F2) of Bacillus anthracis.

MODE OF ACTION:
The active component, when injected into a healthy, susceptible animal, stimulates the immune response against these diseases. Immunity is established within 3 to 4 weeks after inoculation and lasts for at least 1 year.

STORAGE:
• Store between 2 °C and 8 °C.
• Do not freeze.
• Protect from light.

WARNINGS:
• Withdrawal period: Do not slaughter animals for human consumption within 2 weeks of vaccination.
• Usually no marked reaction follows vaccination although a transient swelling may appear at the site of inoculation.
• Some animals may show a moderate rise in temperature for 1 or 2 days.
• As usual with all vaccines, absolute immunity cannot be guaranteed in all animals.
Therefore, it is advisable to consult a veterinarian regarding additional control measures, instead of relying on the vaccine alone.
• As with all vaccines, occasional hypersensitivity reactions may occur. In such cases, appropriate treatment such as adrenaline and/or antihistamines should be administered without delay.
• Dispose of any unused vaccine as well as all empty vaccine containers and vaccination equipment as per local waste disposal regulations.
• KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN, UNINFORMED PERSONS AND ANIMALS.
• Although this vaccine has been extensively tested under a large variety of conditions, failure thereof may ensue as a result of a wide range of reasons. If this is suspected, seek veterinary advice and notify the registration holder.

PRECAUTIONS:
Concurrent administration of antibiotics to vaccinated animals is contra-indicated as the antibiotic will interfere with the vaccine. Antibiotics should not be given for several days before and after vaccination.
