Active immunisation of dogs to:
-
prevent mortality and clinical signs caused by canine distemper virus
(CDV),
-
prevent mortality and clinical signs caused by infectious canine
hepatitis virus (CAV),
-
reduce viral excretion during respiratory disease caused by canine
adenovirus type 2 (CAV-2),

Onset of immunity: 2 weeks for all strains
Duration of immunity: at least one year after the second injection of

after the first annual booster for all strains.
Current available challenge and serological data show that protection
for distemper virus, adenovirus and parvovirus*
lasts for 2 years after primary vaccination course followed by a first
annual booster. Any decision to adapt the
vaccination schedule of this veterinary medicinal product needs to be
made on a case by case basis, taking into account
the vaccination history of the dog and the epidemiological context.
