Glanvac® 3S
Description
- Glanvac 3S provides sheep with protection against Cheesy Gland (CLA), Tetanus and Pulpy Kidney with the added benefit of correcting Selenium deficiency in lambs.
- Cheesy Gland (CLA) is a risk to all Australian sheep flocks. Clostridial diseases are found Australia wide in the soil and the environment.
- Selenium is an essential trace element that is vital for wool production, growth and fertility. Selenium deficiencies in sheep result in reduced wool production and growth rates, ill thrift, infertility in ewes and death of young lambs due to White Muscle Disease.
- Glanvac 3S utilises Zoetis' ultra-filtration technology, this allows the vaccine to produce a more targeted immune response in sheep, while providing producers with the convenience of a 1 mL dose rate.
Key Benefits
- Creates a high level of disease protection in the breeding flock.
- Protects your flock from two common clostridial diseases (Pulpy Kidney and Tetanus) and Cheesy Gland in a 1mL dose.
- Improves lamb marking and weaning percentages by preventing clostridial deaths such as Pulpy Kidney and Tetanus.
- Improves meat quality through Cheesy Gland protection, ensuring export and domestic customers receive a quality product.
- Improves wool quality and quantity by protecting against Cheesy Gland.
- Maintains a high level of Selenium in the lactating ewe and lamb in a period of high requirement which aids in wool production, growth and fertility in ewes and prevents White Muscle Disease in lambs.
- 30-day reuse claim when label is followed correctly.
Recommendations for Use
- Control of caseous lymphadenitis (CLA or Cheesey Gland); and the prevention of enterotoxaemia (Pulpy Kidney disease) and Tetanus in sheep, and lambs.
- Prevention of white muscle disease in lambs in areas of known or suspected Selenium deficiency. For use in Selenium deficient areas only. Seek veterinary advice when Selenium is being supplemented by other means.
The Zoetis Advantage
- Ensures the vaccine is of the highest quality by seeking out and removing unwanted particles
- Enables the vaccine to generate a more targeted immune response
- Delivers reliable protection within a convenient 1ml dose rate.
Glanvac 3S protects against two clostridial diseases (Tetanus and Pulpy Kidney) and Cheesy Gland (CLA). It also contains Selenium for improved lamb survival, lamb growth and wool production.

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
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:
- First priming dose at marking
- Second booster dose at weaning
Previously unvaccinated ewes need two doses:
- First priming dose at the time of joining or scanning
- Second booster dose approximately 4 weeks before the expected date of lambing
Other classes of previously unvaccinated sheep need two doses:
- First ‘priming’ dose.
- 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 Pulpy 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
