title: What you can and cannot learn from reading a vaccine label.
abstract: Although most veterinarians look at vaccine labels each day, they rarely see them. When practitioners sense a need to read labels, they find that the labeling answers some of their basic questions but that these labels often fail to address many relevant issues. In addition, veterinarians find that the issues addressed are often presented simplistically and that the labels are sometimes just wrong. This article addresses what practitioners need to do to better understand the products most of them use on a daily basis.
