Do Virbac Vaccinations Contain Thimerosal?

[Erny]

Could someone (one of the DOLer Vets perhaps?) tell me if Virbac vaccinations contain Thimerosal please?

You are probably best to contact Virbac directly .... number from website

Customer service hotline

1800 242 100

Merial is the manufacturer that makes thimerosol free vaccs in the USA (for rabies and C4) so may do them here, but we generally have different vaccines here so best to call the companies as they will have all that data.

Thanks for the contact info :).

If you look here: http://services.apvma.gov.au/PubcrisWebClient/search.do

I have used the APVMA search engine called "Pubcris" and searched for all products for Virbac, under immunotherapy for dogs. On the left of each product you will see a unique number that you can click, you will get a series of tabs that give you product details like General Details, Label Details etc. On the right of each listing there is a link for View Label where you should find ingredients including preservatives like Thiomersal.

This search system is very handy when researching vet products. :)

Thanks Alyosha - I am getting zero search results. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Spoke to a Vet representative of Virbac and the answer to my question is negative.
