Ovivac P Plus

For the active immunisation of lambs as an aid in the control of pulpy kidney, tetanus, braxy and blackleg caused by Cl.perfringens type D, Cl.septicum, Cl.tetani and Cl.chauvoei.
Vaccinating ewes with Heptavac P Plus initially helps protect their lambs via the colostrum. However, this passive immunity wanes, leaving lambs unprotected. To immunise growing and store lambs after this period, two 2 ml doses of Ovivac P Plus, 4 to 6 weeks apart, are required. The course can be started from as early as three weeks of age.

Legal Category POM-VPS

Dosage & Administration:

Dose : 2 ml

Administration: The vaccine should be administered by subcutaneous injection in the lateral side of the upper neck observing aseptic precautions

All lambs not previously vaccinated with Ovivac P Plus must receive two injections, each of 2.0 ml, separated by an interval of 4-6 weeks. Thereafter they must receive booster injections at intervals of not more than 12 months. On farms where the incidence of pasteurellosis is high, a supplementary booster vaccination with Ovipast Plus (Pasteurella vaccine) may be required 2-3 weeks prior to expected seasonal outbreaks.

Ovivac 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.
