DEFENSOR 3

DEFENSOR 3

DEFENSOR has an inactivated rabies virus from an established cell line to effectively help protect dogs and cats from rabies

Categories: , , , , Brand:

Defensor 3 is for vaccination of healthy dogs, cats, cattle and sheep 3 months of age or older as an aid in preventing rabies.

Key benefits:

  •  Contains a highly immunogenic, fixed strain of rabies virus that originated from Louis Pasteur’s original 1882 isolate and has been extensively tested for freedom from contaminating agents.
  • Use of an established cell line yields a vaccine of consistent potency from serial to serial.
  • Formulated with a chemically inactivated rabies virus prepared from cell culture.
  • Exceptionally well tolerated after injection due to a novel dual-buffering system that restricts pH to a narrow, safe range.
  • DEFENSOR has been demonstrated to be uniformly safe in experimental tests, and no significant adverse reactions were reported in extensive clinical trials of the vaccine.
  • DEFENSOR vaccines produced for sale in California meet specific potency standards required by that state.
  • Customer-friendly packaging using recycled materials includes peel-off labels to make record- keeping faster and more accurate, a color-coded organizing system, and an easy-open safety band.
