Description

For the prevention and treatment of Coccidiosis in chickens (broilers, broiler breeders, replacement pullets), turkeys, ducks and pigeons.

Vetsense Cocciprol is administered through the drinking water as an aid in the prevention of economically important strains of coccidiosis including E. Tenella, E. Necatrix and most strains of E. Acervulina.

Cocciprol Features:

• Easily mixed into daily drinking water
• Can be used both as preventative and as treatment
• Nil Withholding Period for eggs or meat

Active Ingredient: 200g/Kg Amprolium (as Amprolium Hydrochloride)

Directions for Use:

Using the teaspoon provided (1 level tsp = 3g, 1 rounded tsp = 5g)

Prevention dosage:

• Larger Flocks: 5g in 4L of drinking water
• Smaller Flocks: 2.5g (half rounded tsp) in 2L of drinking water
• Administer for 24 hours every fourth day during periods of likely infection. This action helps to control the coccidia by interrupting the life cycle and encourages immunity to develop.

Treatment dosage:

Stage 1

• Larger Flocks: 5g in 4L of drinking water.
• Smaller Flocks: 2.5g (half rounded tsp) in 2L of drinking water.
• Administer continuously for 5 to 7 days.

• Larger Flocks: 3g in 4L of drinking water
• Smaller Flocks: 1.5g (half level tsp) in 2L of drinking water
• This gradual reduction in the level of treatment assists the birds to develop immunity while maintaining some level of protection.

A fresh solution should be prepared daily.

Warnings:

• Continual overdosing will lead to birds losing muscle condition and strength. Signs of this include twisted necks and lameness.
