Indications
For the vaccination of healthy chickens and turkeys as an aid in the prevention of fowl cholera due to P. multocida.  PM-ONEVAX-C is a live bacterial vaccine containing the mild avirulent  PM-1 strain of Pasteurella multocida.  This vaccine strain has been shown to offer protection against fowl cholera in chickens and turkeys.                                           

Chickens: Use by wing-web stab to vaccinate chickens 10-12 weeks of age and again at 18-20 weeks of age against pasteurellosis (fowl cholera) due to P. multocida Type 1. There should be at least 6 weeks and not more than 10 weeks between vaccinations.     

Turkeys: Use by wing-web stab to vaccinate turkey breeders 15 weeks of age or older against pasteurellosis (fowl cholera) due to P. multocida Type 3.  Birds should initially be wing-web vaccinated at 15-18 weeks of age and again 8 weeks later.  Turkey breeders must be vaccinated at least twice with live fowl cholera vaccine via oral route prior to wing-web vaccination.  The interval between the last oral vaccination and the first wing-web vaccination should not exceed 6 weeks.  Additional wing-web vaccination every 6-8 weeks throughout the life of the bird may be required in areas of endemic exposure to fowl cholera.
