Description
Nobivac 2-FeLV is a veterinarian-recommended vaccine designed to help protect healthy cats against feline leukemia virus (FeLV), a leading cause of serious feline illness. This vaccine aids in the prevention of lymphoid tumors and diseases associated with FeLV infection by preventing persistent viremia following exposure to the virus.
The vaccine is formulated using inactivated feline leukemia virus subgroups A and B, cultured in tissue culture cells, and combined with a proprietary adjuvant to enhance the immune response.
Key Benefits

- Superior Performance: Demonstrated higher efficacy compared to multiple competing FeLV vaccines.
- Real-Life Protection: The only vaccine shown effective in long-term co-mingling studies that mimic real-world exposure.
- Outstanding Safety: Over 99% reaction-free in ongoing surveillance involving millions of doses.
- Flexible Vaccination Options: Can be combined with other Nobivac feline vaccines for broader protection.
- Recommended for: All kittens under 1 year and healthy indoor-outdoor cats of any age.
Indications
- Indicated for the vaccination of healthy cats as an aid in the prevention of lymphoid tumors and diseases associated with feline leukemia virus (FeLV) infection.

- Initial 1 mL dose should be given at 9 weeks of age or older.
- A second 1 mL booster dose should be administered 3 to 4 weeks after the initial vaccination.
- Revaccination is recommended every 2 years with a single 1 mL dose to maintain immunity.

Warnings

- As with any biological product, there is a risk of anaphylaxis or other hypersensitivity reactions. Emergency Treatment: Epinephrine, corticosteroids, and antihistamines may be used as appropriate based on the reaction's severity.
- Certain conditions may prevent some cats from developing or maintaining an adequate immune response. Prior exposure to FeLV or latent infection will not be affected by vaccination.
- It is strongly recommended to perform FeLV antigen testing prior to vaccination to confirm the cat's status.
- This vaccine does not offer protection against feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), a distinct feline retrovirus. Pet owners should be informed of this limitation.
