Description

Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida Type D Bacterin-Toxoid.

Features

Ingelvac AR4 dual toxoid delivers a wider range of protection.

Ingelvac AR4 is unique in its ability to protect against toxigenic strains of Bordetella as well as Pasteurella multocida Type A&D.

Intramuscular or subcutaneous administration.

Benefits

Broadest toxoid protection available.

Helps pigs generate antibodies that neutralize the toxin produced by toxigenic strains of Bordetella bronchiseptica. Bordetella bronchi-septica toxin antibodies may stop the problem before Pasteurella gets a foothold. Bacterin-toxoid means that the vaccine contains not only the bacteria itself, but also a toxoid that helps the pig generate antibodies to neutralize the toxin produced by both Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida Type A&D.

Advantages

Ingelvac AR4 is the only dual-toxoid atrophic rhinitis product available.

Low volume 1 mL pig dose.

Flexible administration.

Dosage & Administration

Sows and Gilts: Using aseptic technique, inject 2 mL intramuscularly 5 weeks prior to farrowing. Repeat with a second 2 mL dose 2 to 3 weeks prior to farrowing. Administer one 2 mL dose 2 to 3 weeks prior to each subsequent farrowing.

Pigs: Using aseptic technique, vaccinate intramuscularly or subcutaneously with 1 mL prior to weaning. Recommended revaccination of pigs is 2 to 3 weeks later.

Precautions

Uses

Ingelvac AR4 is recommended for the vaccination of healthy, susceptible swine against atrophic rhinitis caused by toxigenic Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida toxigenic Type A&D.

Protection in the piglet is provided by the maternal antibodies in colostrum. Therefore, piglets should receive colostrum from the vaccinated sow as soon as possible after birth. Vaccination of the piglet is also necessary for active immunity.

Warning

Do not vaccinate within 21 days before slaughter.
