How to Use

Using aseptic technique inject 1 mL IM preferably in the hind quarters. For primary vaccination give 3 doses at intervals of 3 weeks. Foals vaccinated when less than 3 months of age should receive an additional dose at 6 months. Revaccinate annually and prior to anticipated exposure.

Field reports suggest certain hypersensitive horses may demonstrate local or generalized reaction, sometimes severe, following exposure to streptococcal proteins. Studies indicate exercise following vaccination decreased incidence and duration of reactions.
