BOVILIS Cavalry 9 Indications

This product has been shown to be effective for the vaccination of healthy cattle against disease caused by Clostridium chauvoei, C. septicum, C. haemolyticum, C. novyi, C. sordellii, C. tetani, and C. perfringens Types C & D. This product was licensed prior to the requirement to establish a minimum age for use. Duration of immunity has not been established. For more information regarding efficacy and safety data, go to productdata.aphis.usda.gov.

Although C. perfringens Type B is not a significant problem in North America, immunity is derived from a combination of the Type C (beta) and Type D (epsilon) fractions.

ADMINISTRATION AND DOSAGE: Mix gently. Inject 2 mL subcutaneously followed by a 2 mL dose in 3 weeks. Calves vaccinated at 3-6 months of age should be given a 3rd vaccination with either this vaccine, or another vaccine containing C. perfringens Type D epsilon toxoid. For advice on revaccination frequency, contact your veterinarian.

PRESERVATIVES: Gentamicin and thimerosal.
