Strepvax II Vaccine is designed to protect horses from Streptococcus equi infection. It's made using a purified M-protein antigen extracted through an exclusive process, and it promotes phagocyte destruction of virulent S equi. Healthy horses of all ages are eligible to receive the Strepvax II vaccine. It's sold in 10-dose or single-dose quantities.How it Works
Strepvax II is a concentrated aluminum hydroxide-adsorbed suspension of purified antigens derived from Streptococcus equi cells. It contains the antigenic protein of this antigen but is essentially free of the toxic and irritant substances present in whole cell bacterins.
Special Precautions
Keep away from children and animals. Do not vaccinate within 21 days before slaughter.
Overdose Information
Contact your nearest emergency animal hospital
Side Effects
Field reports suggest that certain hypersensitive individuals may demonstrate local or generalized reactions, sometimes severe, following exposure to streptococcal proteins. Field studies indicate that postvaccinal exercise will appreciably decrease the incidence and duration of reactions. Anaphylactoid reactions may occur following use. Antidote: Epinephrine.

Store at 35°-45°F (2°-7°C). Protect from freezing.
