INDICATIONS: PregGuard GOLD FP 10 is for vaccination of healthy cows and heifers prior to breeding to prevent persistently infected calves caused by bovine virus diarrhea (BVD) virus Types 1 and 2 and as an aid in preventing abortion caused by infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR, bovine herpesvirus Type 1) virus; respiratory disease caused by IBR, BVD Types 1 and 2, and parainfluenza₃ (PI₃) virus; BVD Type 2 testicular infection; campylobacteriosis (vibriosis) caused by Campylobacter fetus; and leptospirosis caused by Leptospira canicola, L. grippotyphosa, L. hardjo, L. icterohaemorrhagiae, and L. pomona. A 12-month duration of immunity has been demonstrated against IBR-induced abortion and persistently infected calves caused by BVD Types 1 and 2. PregGuard GOLD FP 10 may be administered to pregnant cattle provided they were vaccinated, according to label directions, with any Bovi-Shield GOLD^® FP or PregGuard GOLD FP vaccine within the past 12 months.
