Continuum® DAP-R


Continuum® DAP-R is a modified live virus vaccine containing attenuated strains of canine distemper virus (CDV), adenovirus type 2 (CAV-2), parvovirus (CPV), and inactivated rabies virus. Continuum DAP-R is presented in a desiccated form with rabies diluent provided for reconstitution. The attenuated distemper virus strain used in Continuum DAP-R is the Onderstepoort strain. The parvovirus component is patented* CPV strain 154® vaccine, which is an attenuated parvovirus strain of canine origin. Continuum DAP-R is produced with high-titered CPV and CDV components that are immunogenic. The Manhattan strain of adenovirus type 2 in Continuum DAP-R confers protection against canine infectious hepatitis caused by CAV-1 without the adverse reactions associated with CAV-1, such as corneal edema (“blue eye”). The Pasteur strain of rabies virus is used in Continuum DAP-R.

*US Patent Nos. 4,810,494, 5,316,764



Indications
For the vaccination of healthy dogs as an aid in the prevention of disease caused by rabies, canine distemper virus, canine adenovirus type 1, and canine parvovirus for up to 3 years following initial and booster vaccinations. Protection against CAV-2 was demonstrated by robust serological responses in dogs at 36 months following vaccination.

Initial vaccination of healthy dogs may be given as early as 12 weeks of age, with a booster injection for rabies using Continuum DAP-R or monovalent rabies vaccine administered 1 year later.
