Argus® SC/ST vaccine aids in the prevention of pneumonia, diarrhea, septicemia and mortality caused by S. choleraesuis and as an aid in the control of disease and shedding caused by S. typhimurium in healthy swine 3 weeks of age or older.
The avirulent live vaccine fights salmonella by activating the pig’s immune system, allowing the pig to recognize and defeat the more virulent organisms it encounters in its environment.
When any vaccine is delivered through a proportioner, the quality of the water directly impacts its effectiveness. Oxidizing minerals like iron, nitrate contaminants, or chlorine compounds used to clean the water can negate the effectiveness of the vaccine used.
Once the Argus® SC/ST has been dispensed and the proportioner has delivered all fluids, return to non-treated water flow.
Do not use antibiotics, sulfonamides or other medications in feed or water for 3 days before and 3 days after vaccination.
