Vaccination against respiratory disease
- Primary course: A single dose of Duvaxyn EHV1,4 should be administered from five months of age followed by a second injection of Duvaxyn EHV1,4 after an interval of 4-6 weeks. In the event of increased infection risk, for example when a foal has consumed insufficient colostrum or there is risk of early exposure to field infections with EHV-1 or EHV-4, an earlier vaccination may be given. In these circumstances the foal should receive a single dose of Duvaxyn EHV1,4 from three months of age followed by the above mentioned full primary vaccination course.
- Boosting immunity: Following completion of the primary course, a single dose of Duvaxyn EHV1,4 should be administered every six months.
