Nobivac KC Dog Vaccine (Kennel Cough Protection)

Nobivac KC Dog Vaccine (Kennel Cough Protection) is administered as a single dose directly into one nostril by a veterinarian after proper reconstitution with the provided diluent. Dogs can be vaccinated from a young age, and a single dose is usually given at least a few weeks before expected exposure, such as boarding or contact with other dogs. For best results, ensure the dog is healthy at the time of vaccination and avoid exposure to high-risk environments until immunity develops.

There is limited data on common side effects of Nobivac KC Dog Vaccine (Kennel Cough Protection). However, after vaccination, mild respiratory signs such as nasal or eye discharge, sneezing, coughing, or mild wheezing may occur, especially in young puppies. These are usually temporary and resolve on their own. Rarely, lethargy or vomiting may be seen. Monitor the dog after vaccination and provide rest for mild symptoms.

Only healthy dogs should be vaccinated to ensure safety and effectiveness. Using antibiotics around the time of vaccination may reduce effectiveness, and if antibiotics are given within a week after vaccination, revaccination may be required. Immunosuppressive medications may also reduce the immune response. The vaccine should not be mixed with other products except the supplied diluent.

• Prevention of Kennel Cough

This medicine is administered intranasally by a veterinarian after reconstitution with the provided diluent. It is given directly into one nostril using a syringe without a needle. The vaccine should not be self-administered.

• If early protection is needed (especially for Bordetella), ensure vaccination is done at least 72 hours before anticipated exposure.
• Ensure your dog is healthy at the time of vaccination, as illness can reduce the vaccine’s effectiveness.
• Avoid starting or continuing antibiotics around the time of vaccination; if antibiotics are given within a week after vaccination, consult your veterinarian about revaccination.
• Monitor your dog for a few days after vaccination for mild signs like sneezing, nasal discharge, or coughing, which are usually temporary.
• Limit close contact with very young, unvaccinated, or immunocompromised animals for a few weeks, as vaccinated dogs may shed vaccine strains.
• Inform your veterinarian about any ongoing medications, especially immunosuppressive drugs, before vaccination.
