CattleMaster^® 4 is used for vaccination of healthy cattle, including pregnant cows as an aid in preventing infectious bovine rhinotracheitis caused by infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus, bovine viral diarrhoea (BVD) virus, and disease caused by parainfluenza 3 (PI₃) virus and bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV).

As with most vaccines, anaphylaxis may occur after use. Initial antidote of adrenalin is recommended and should be followed by appropriate supportive therapy.

This product has been shown to be efficacious in healthy animals. A protective immune response may not be elicited if animals are incubating an infectious disease, are malnourished or parasitised, are stressed due to shipment or environmental conditions, are otherwise immunocompromised, or the vaccine is not administered in accordance with label directions.

Although this vaccine has been tested extensively under a large variety of conditions, failure thereof may ensue as a result of a wide range of reasons. If this is suspected seek veterinary advice and notify the registration holder
