BotVax B Indications

BotVax B is for the prevention of equine botulism due to Clostridium botulinum Type B in healthy horses.

Dosage

Inject 2.0 mL intramuscularly at monthly intervals for a total of 3 doses. Booster annually with a single 2.0 mL intramuscular dose.

Research has demonstrated that pregnant mares immunized during the third trimester of gestation, with the third dose (booster) given 2 - 4 weeks before parturition, respond with antibody. This antibody is concentrated in colostrum and results in significant passively acquired antibody in normal sulking foals.

Administration

Inject intramuscularly using aseptic technique. Shake well before use.
