Express® FP
Reproductive health and efficiency is a key part of all successful dairy operations. From lowering the number of open cows to reducing milk loss due to treatment, there’s no question that preventing reproductive diseases makes sense and can help maximize your herd performance. Vaccination is just one of the key steps in that disease prevention process.
The Express ® FP family of products is among the most complete modified-live virus (MLV) bovine vaccines on the market, and is specifically designed to offer enhanced herd protection against dairy cattle reproductive diseases. With two convenient options — Express FP 5 and Express FP 10 — you can be sure to find an option that meets your needs.
Now with even stronger disease protection, Express FP carries the following label claims:
- Prevents persistently infected calves caused by BVD Types 1 and 2
- Aids in the prevention of abortion due to infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus
- A demonstrated 12-month duration of immunity against IBR-induced abortion and against disease including persistently infected calves caused by BVD Types 1 and 2
- Express FP 10 prevents urinary shedding of
L. borgpetersenii serovar
hardjo (type
hardjo-bovis). Vaccinated animals subsequently exposed to
L. borgpetersenii serovar
hardjo (type
hardjo-bovis) have been shown to clear renal infections within eight weeks of exposure.
- Aids in the reduction of infertility, delayed conception or abortion due to leptospirosis caused by five serovars of
Leptospira
- Aids in the prevention of respiratory disease caused by IBR virus, BVD Types 1 and 2 and bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV)
- Aids in the reduction of respiratory disease caused by parainfluenza 3 (PI
3) virus
- Flexibility in timing of vaccination. Express FP vaccines can also be used in pregnant cows or calves nursing pregnant cows as long as the cows have been vaccinated in the last 12 months with any Express FP product according to label directions.
Additionally, Express FP is the first reproductive vaccine on the market to offer a reimbursement to producers if a calf persistently infected with BVD is born from a properly vaccinated cow.
