Zoetis Fostera Gold PCV Swine Vaccine 500 mL/250 Dose

Fostera^® Gold PCV is for the vaccination of healthy pigs 3 days of age or older against porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2). This ready-to-use combination vaccine delivers:

• Broader protection against quickly evolving PCV2.¹ With two PCV2 genotypes, Fostera Gold PCV has the broadest antigenic coverage available of any PCV2 vaccine on the market.
• Demonstrated safety and efficacy against common PCV2 strains. Fostera Gold PCV has demonstrated safety and protection against PCV2a, PCV2b and PCV2d.^2-8
• Long protection for pig health and your profitability. Fostera Gold PCV is the longest-lasting PCV2 vaccine with a duration of immunity (DOI) of at least 23 weeks. This length of coverage can help reduce the risk of late PCV2d breaks near the end of finishing.

Dosage:

• Shake well
• Single-dose protocol: Administer a single 2-mL dose intramuscularly to healthy pigs 3 weeks of age or older.
• Flexible, two-dose protocol: Also may be given as two 1-mL doses administered intramuscularly three weeks apart to pigs 3 days of age^* or older.
• The optimal choice of the dosing regimen, including age at time of vaccination, will depend on farm circumstances.

* Field experience with PCV2 vaccines indicates that waiting until 3 weeks of age to initiate a split-dose regimen may yield a better immune response, even though the vaccine is safe when given at a younger age.
