“Protecting the reproductive health of the cow herd is so important for any successful cow-calf operation,” says Dr. Joe Campbell, professional services veterinarian with Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc.

“Express FP and its expanded label is one way we at Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. are making a commitment to provide producers with tools to help prevent disease and help cattle perform to their highest potential.”

These new claims add to Express FP’s reputation as one of the most complete modified-live virus (MLV) reproductive vaccine families on the market. Backed by a solid foundation of research, Express FP vaccines are also labeled to:

  • Prevent PI calves caused by BVD Types 1 and 2
