Protect against clostridial diseases such as blackleg and bacterial red water. The primary course of immunization for cattle consists of a 2 ml initial dose followed by a further 2 ml dose six weeks later. Sheep follow the same dosing program but only need a 1ml dose. In areas of high risk of infection from C. haemolyticum infection an initial vaccination regime of two doses of 4 ml is recommended. Revaccination is recommended using 2 - 4 ml, depending on severity of risk of infection from C. haemolyticum, at intervals of not less than one year. Use during pregnancy for passive protection of calves, previously vaccinated pregnant cattle should be vaccinated 2-8 weeks before calving. For an optimum immune response, calves from cows vaccinated during pregnancy should not be vaccinated until 8-12 weeks of age. Zero withdrawal for meat offal and milk. The re-vaccination plan involves a single dose every 6-12 months.

Combined 7 in 1 Clostridial plus Pasteurella vaccine containing per ml: Clostridium perfringens beta toxoid : Clostridium perfringens epsilon toxoid ; Clostridium septicum: Clostridium tetani toxoid: Clostridium novyi toxoid ; Clostridium chauvoei cells and equivalent toxoid and formalin killed cells of the epidemiologically most important serotypes of Mannheimia haemolytica and Pasteurella trehalosi. For the active immunisation of sheep as an aid in the control of lamb dysentery, pulpy kidney, struck, tetanus, braxy, blackleg, black disease and clostridial metritis caused by the above listed organisms. The vaccine may be used as an aid in the control of pneumonic pasteurellosis in sheep of all ages from a minimum age of 3 weeks and in the control of systemic pasteurellosis in weaned fattening and breeding sheep. Dosage & Administration • Sheep of all ages: 2 ml per injection by subcutaneous injection in the lateral side of the upper neck observing aseptic precautions. • All breeding sheep not previously vaccinated with Heptavac P Plus must receive two injections, each of 2 ml, separated by an interval of 4-6 weeks. • Thereafter they must receive booster injections at intervals of not more than 12 months. • In adult breeding ewes these yearly booster injections should be given during the pre-lambing period, 4-6 weeks before lambing, as an aid in control of disease in their lambs. • Ewes may be vaccinated during pregnancy as an aid in the control of lamb dysentery, pulpy kidney, tetanus and pasteurellosis in their lambs provided that the lambs receive sufficient immune colostrum during the first 1-2 days of life. • On farms where the incidence of pasteurellosis is high, a supplementary booster injection using a Pasteurella vaccine may be required 2-3 weeks prior to expected seasonal outbreaks. • Heptavac P Plus should not be used in lambs less than 3 weeks of age due to the possible immunological incompetence of the very young lamb and competition from any maternally derived colostral antibodies. • Lambs being retained for fattening or subsequent breeding will require a full course of vaccination. At a minimum age of 3 weeks these lambs should receive two injections, each of 2.0 ml, separated by an interval of 4-6 weeks. • It should be noted that Heptavac P Plus is the recommended vaccine for breeding stock since it provides optimal aid in the control of the predominant clostridial diseases in adult sheep by active immunisation and in young lambs by passive immunisation.
