PROGARD®-5 with CPV Strain 154®
PROGARD®-5 vaccine is a modified live virus vaccine containing attenuated strains of canine distemper virus, adenovirus type 2, parainfluenza virus and parvovirus grown in the PRO-CELL STABLE CELL LINETM medium. PROGARD®-5 is presented in a desiccated single-dose form with sterile diluent provided for reconstitution.
The attenuated distemper virus strain used in PROGARD®-5 is the Onderstepoort strain. The parvovirus component is patented* CPV STRAIN 154® vaccine which is an attenuated parvovirus strain of canine origin. The unique InterTekTM production process has made it possible to produce PROGARD®-5 with high titered CPV and CDV components which are highly immunogenic.
The Manhattan strain of adenovirus type 2 in PROGARD®-5 confers protection against canine infectious hepatitis caused by CAV-1 as well as infectious tracheobronchitis caused by CAV-2. Use of the Manhattan strain of CAV-2 provides dual protection without the adverse reactions associated with CAV-1, such as corneal edema ("blue eye").
Indications
PROGARD®-5 is for vaccination of healthy dogs against canine distemper virus infection, canine infectious hepatitis caused by CAV-1, canine respiratory infection caused by CAV-2, canine parainfluenza virus infection and canine parvovirus infection.
