PNEUMABORT-K® + 1b is labeled for use in pregnant mares, and to aid in the prevention of abortion due to equine herpesvirus Type 1 (EHV-1) infections, and to aid in the prevention of respiratory disease caused by EHV-1p and EHV-1b in healthy horses 9 months of age and older.
PNEUMABORT-K® + 1b is labeled for use in pregnant mares, and to aid in the prevention of abortion due to equine herpesvirus Type 1 (EHV-1) infections, and to aid in the prevention of respiratory disease caused by EHV-1p and EHV-1b in healthy horses 9 months of age and older.
In the fifth, seventh and ninth months of gestation, mares need a vaccine labeled to help protect against abortion caused by EHV-1. In fact, pregnant mares have more than four times greater risk of abortion due to EHV-1 when not vaccinated.1-4
For use with Equine
Available as Killed virus vaccine
Indications
PNEUMABORT K® +1b has been shown to be effective in healthy horses 9 months of age or older to help protect against respiratory disease cased by EHV-1p and EHV-1b and for use in pregnant mares to aid in prevention of abortion due to EHV-1 infections.
HOW IT WORKS
PNEUMABORT K® +1b has been shown to be effective in healthy horses 9 months of age or older to help protect against respiratory disease caused by EHV-1p and EHV-1b and for use in pregnant mares to aid in prevention of abortion due to EHV-1 infections.
What Is It For? For the vaccination of healthy horses 9 months of age or older against EHV-1.
Recommended for whole-herd management — including geldings, stallions and mares — where there is evidence of EHV-1 in the herd population.
In the fifth, seventh and ninth months of gestation, mares need a vaccine labeled to help protect against abortion caused by EHV-1. In fact, pregnant mares have more than four times greater risk of abortion due to EHV-1 when not vaccinated.1-4
Dosage and Administration
For pregnant mares, aseptically administer one 2-mL dose intramuscularly (IM) during the fifth, seventh and ninth months of each pregnancy.
To aid in the prevention of EHV-1 respiratory disease in young horses, aseptically administer one 2-mL dose IM after weaning, followed by a second 2-mL dose three to four weeks later. Revaccinate with a single 2-mL dose six months after the second primary dose and annually thereafter.
To ensure proper placement and retention of the vaccine, inject deep into the heavy muscles of the hindquarter.
Mild exercise to promote absorption is recommended for one week after injection.
How Does It Work?
PNEUMABORT-K® + 1b is adjuvanted for improved immune responses.
The 1b subgroup of EHV-1 continues to be an important group, as are abortions associated with EHV-1 infections.5

An occasional local swelling or induration at the site of injection may be encountered.
Avoid freezing.
Store in the dark at 2° C to 7° C (35° F to 45° F).

Have always used this for my broodmares

I’ve used this vaccine for years for my in foal mares. I’ve never had a bad reaction to it and I’ve never had a mare lose a foal. It’s great that I can stop by the store and pick this up when I need it. I don’t have to worry about it staying cold during shipping.
