  • Protects your flock from two common clostridial diseases (Pulpy Kidney and Tetanus) and Cheesy Gland.
  • Improves lamb marking and weaning percentages by preventing clostridial deaths such as Pulpy Kidney and Tetanus.
  • Improves wool quality and quantity by protecting against Cheesy Gland.
  • Improves meat quality through Cheesy Gland protection, ensuring export and domestic customers receive a quality product.
  • 30-day reuse claim when label directions are followed correctly.

Glanvac 3 protects against two clostridial diseases (Tetanus and Pulpy Kidney) and Cheesy Gland (CLA).
 

Advantages Glanvac+Eryvac Dual Vaccinator

This vaccine may be administered with Eryvac vaccine(APVMA No. 53385) using a dual-barrel single needle vaccination device, and has been proven a safe method of vaccination in pregnant ewes. The co-administration of Glanvac vaccine and Eryvac vaccine using a dual-barrel single-needle vaccinator resulted in efficacy (measured using serological outcomes such as antibody titres) that was comparable to that of each vaccine administered separately, with an acceptable safety profile.

Dosage

SHEEP

Dose rate: 1 mL for all classes of sheep.
Injection site

Vaccine should be administered subcutaneously using a shrouded vaccinator and a 6mm (¼ inch) 18-gauge needle on the side of the neck midway between the ear and the front of the shoulder.

Vaccinate at a 45° angle to the skin in lambs and adults with short wool, and at 90° for adults with wool growth.

Lambs need two doses:
1. First ‘priming’ dose at marking.
2. Second ‘booster’ dose at weaning.
Previously unvaccinated ewes need two doses:
1. First ‘priming’ dose at the time of joining or scanning.
2. Second ‘booster’ dose approximately 4 weeks before the expected date of lambing.
Other classes of previously unvaccinated sheep need two doses:
1. First ‘priming’ dose.
2. Second ‘booster’ dose approximately 4 weeks after.
Previously vaccinated sheep need ‘annual booster’ vaccinations:
  • For ewes vaccinate 4 weeks before the expected date of lambing.
  • This should pass temporary immunity to their lambs in the colostrum, or first milk, to protect them for the first 6 to 8 weeks of their lives.
  • For Pulp Kidney protection where possible give the annual booster at least 2 weeks prior to the time of maximum risk e.g. transfer to lush pasture or grain feeding.
  • For Cheesy Gland (CLA) booster doses should be given within 6 months prior to shearing

Goat

Dose rate: 1 mL for all classes of goats.

Injection Site:

Vaccine should be administered subcutaneously using a shrouded vaccinator and a 6mm (¼ inch) 18-gauge needle on the side of the neck midway between the ear and the front of the shoulder. Vaccinate at a 45° angle to the skin.

Kids need two doses:

1. First ‘priming’ dose at marking.

2. Second ‘booster’ dose 4 weeks later.

Pregnant does:
Previously unvaccinated does need two doses:

1. First ‘priming’ dose at the time of joining/mating.

2. Second ‘booster’ dose approximately 4 weeks before the expected date of kidding.

Previously vaccinated Does:
1. Vaccinate 4 weeks before the expected date of kidding
2. This should pass temporary immunity to their kids in the colostrum, or first milk, to protect them for the first 6 to 8 weeks of their lives.

Other classes of previously unvaccinated goats need two doses:

1. First ‘priming’ dose.

2. Second ‘booster’ dose approximately 4 weeks after.

GOATS WILL THEN REQUIRE REGULAR REVACCINATION AT 6 MONTHLY INTERVALS TO MAINTAIN EFFECTIVE IMMUNITY AGAINST ENTEROTOXAEMIA (PULPY KIDNEY)
