REGISTRATIONS VARY BY COUNTRY
AviPro® IBD Xtreme: (Lyophilisate for suspension). Statement of the active substance(s): 1 dose contains: Active substance: live intermediate plus IBD (Infectious bursal disease)-Virus, strain V217, 10 1.5 - 10 3 ELD 50 / bird dose*. * ELD 50 = 50 % egg-lethal dose:
the virus titer required to cause death in 50% of the inoculated embryos. Indication(s): For active immunization of chickens with maternally derived antibodies (breakthrough titer: 636) to reduce clinical disease, weight loss and acute lesions of the bursa of
Fabricius associated with infection caused by very virulent avian Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD) viruses. Onset of protection: 2 weeks. Duration of immunity: 12 weeks based on serology. Contraindications: Do not administer to unhealthy birds. Adverse reactions:
On day 7 post-vaccination severe lymphocyte depletion is seen in the bursae of the majority of birds. Lymphocyte repopulation commences after day 7 post-vaccination but by day 28 after vaccination notable lesions still remain in the bursae of the birds. The
strain causes an average score of bursal lesion of 2.9 (out of 5 according to Ph. Eur.) at 21 days post-vaccination. If you notice any serious effects or other effects not mentioned in this leaflet, please inform your veterinary surgeon. Withdrawal period: Zero days.
