How
Does it Work? - Pinkeye is prevented by management to
eliminate or reduce exposure to as many predisposing factors as
possible and the use of a good vaccination program. Also, in the face
of an outbreak, vaccinating the entire herd with MAXI/GUARD®
Pinkeye bacterin can help stop the disease spread and significantly
reduce pinkeye incidence.
"Over the last ten years, our practice has used
four different commercial vaccines. Of these vaccines we have
found MAXI/GUARD® Pinkeye bacterin to give
the best results in terms of efficacy, safety, and ease of
administration. This vaccine, when combined with reasonably
good management, will achieve well over 95% protection"

Where do cattle get the pinkeye disease organism?
The introduction of new cattle into a herd can introduce the organism, M. bovis.
However, this organism is often found as part of the resident
bacterial population in a herd. M. bovis can reside in the
eyes and upper respiratory tract and not cause disease until
predisposing factors are present. Some of these factors
include over exposure to sunlight, dusty conditions, and unkept
pastures (tall weeds).
Usage
- Administer a 2ml dose subcutaneously to cattle 2 months of age or
older.
You should receive protection for an entire season. You
should booster 1 dose the next year.
