• Improves meat quality through cheesy gland protection, ensuring export and domestic customers receive a quality product.
• Improves kidding and weaning percentages by preventing clostridial deaths such as pulpy kidney and tetanus.
• Improves fleece quality and quantity by protecting against cheesy gland.

• For the control of caseous lymphadenitis (cheesy gland);
• Prevention of enterotoxaemia (pulpy kidney disease), prevention of tetanus, prevention of black disease, prevention of malignant oedema (blackleg-like disease), prevention of blackleg in goats and kids.
• Goats do not commonly suffer from clostridial diseases other than tetanus and enterotoxaemia; use Glanvac^® 3 unless these diseases are known to occur in goats on the property.

Glanvac is produced using Zoetis' Ultra-Filtration Technology. This:

• Ensures the vaccine remains 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

Dose rate: 1mL for all classes of sheep

Injection site: subcutaneously in the side of the neck just behind or below the base of the ear.

• Second ‘booster’ dose at weaning

Previously unvaccinated does need 2 doses:

• First ‘priming’ dose at the time of joining;
• Second ‘booster’ dose approximately 4 weeks before the expected date of kidding

Other previously unvaccinated goats need 2 doses:

• First ‘priming’ dose
• Second ‘booster’ dose approximately 4 weeks after

Previously vaccinated goats need ‘annual booster’ vaccinations:

• For does vaccinate 4 weeks before the expected date of kidding.

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 in the case of enterotoxaemia.

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

Localised swelling may develop at the site of the injection and a firm nodular lump may persist for some weeks or even months.

Cases have been recorded of goats developing signs of anaphylactoid shock shortly after vaccination. This is believed to be due to protein sensitisation as a result of previous vaccination. This vaccine has been prepared in a manner which will reduce the risk as far as possible. Nevertheless, observe valuable animals closely for 1 hour after vaccination; obtain veterinary assistance immediately if signs of shock become evident.
