Zoetis Flusure XP Vaccine is for vaccination of healthy
swine, including pregnant sows and gilts, 3 weeks of age or older as an aid in
preventing respiratory disease caused by swine influenza A viruses H1N1, H1N2
and H3N2. A sterile diluent containing
Amphigen® is used to rehydrate the freeze-dried vaccine.
Directions: Shake diluent before use. Aseptically rehydrate the
freeze-dried vaccine with the accompanying adjuvant-containing sterile diluent,
shake well, and administer 2 mL intramuscularly. Healthy swine 3 weeks of age
or older should receive two 2-mL doses administered approximately 3 weeks
apart. In young pigs, vaccinate after maternally derived antibodies to swine
influenza A viruses have declined. Semi-annual revaccination with a single dose
is recommended.
Precautions: Store at 2°-7°C. Do not freeze. Use entire contents when first opened or rehydrated. Sterilized syringes and needles should be used to administer this vaccine. Do not vaccinate within 21 days before slaughter. Contains gentamicin as preservative. As with many vaccines, anaphylaxis may occur after use. Initial antidote of epinephrine is recommended and should be followed with appropriate supportive therapy.
