As with any vaccination, fish undergo stressful conditions that can cause fungal infections in salmonids. Normal precautionary fungal treatment measures should be taken pre and post vaccination to help prevent fungal infections. This product should be used as part of a comprehensive fish health program in consultation with a licensed veterinarian.

1. Shake well before use. Do not mix with other products.
2. Store in original container at 2-8°C (35-46°F). DO NOT FREEZE.
