Composition
Each 100 gm contains:
Diclazuril 0.5 gm
Properties
- Diclazuril is an anticoccidial of the benzene acetonitrile group and has anticoccidial activity against Eimeria species.
- Depending on the coccidia species, diclazuril has a coccidiocidal effect on the asexual or sexual stages of the development cycle of the parasite. Diclazuril treatment will only have limited effect on the intestinal lesions caused by parasitic stages older than 16 days. Treatment with diclazuril causes interruption of the coccidial cycle and of excretion of oocysts for approximately 2 weeks. This allows the animal to bridge the period of decrease of maternal immunity
