Abstract: Poor animal health, welfare and also unhealthy mental state lead to physiological changes and disrupt the homeostasis of the body. Compensation mechanisms might not successfully overcome the stressor effect and the body will be unable to maintain normal function. It can reduce immune resistance, increase reactive oxygen species generation and so predispose animals to disease. Therefore in a livestock breeding are used pharmacology treatments to prevent severe stressor effect and to stimulate vaccination. Thence we studied the effect of an antioxidant drug on animal respond to vaccination with vaccine against classical swine fever virus. Research was held on a pig-breeding complex. In this research were involved 66 clinically healthy crossbred piglets with average body weight 12,9±0,7 kg. It was found that animals that were exposed to the drug at the dose 10 mg/kg had significantly higher immune response to classical swine fever after vaccination than animals without any drug administration. In conclusion, it is important that animals are in a state of good welfare to successfully respond to vaccination and antioxidant supplementation may help to maintain it.
