Description

This product contains a modified live strain S-1133 of tenosynovitis virus grown in chicken embryos, to aid in the prevention of infectious tenosynovitis.

Teno-Vaxin Indications For Use

For vaccination of healthy chickens between 10 and 17 weeks of age by drinking water administration to aid in prevention of infectious tenosynovitis.

Vaccination Programs

Many factors must be considered in determining the vaccination program for a particular farm or poultry operation. To be fully effective, the vaccine must be administered to healthy receptive birds held in proper environment under good management. In addition, the response may be modified by the age of the birds and their immune status. Seldom does one vaccination under field conditions produce complete protection for all individuals in a given flock. The amount of protection required will vary with the type of operation and the degree of exposure that a flock is likely to encounter. For these reasons a program of periodic revaccination may be required.

Precautions

Only Vaccinate Healthy Birds

Consult your poultry pathologist for further recommendations based on conditions existing in your area at any given time.

Teno-Vaxin Caution

Use only in states where permitted. Do not use on premises where other susceptible chickens are maintained. Do not add vaccinates to premises with susceptible chickens. Do not vaccinate chickens in production.
