Coxi Plus™:  Dosage and administration
 
 
Coxi Plus™
Dosage and administration
The dose rate of sulfadimethoxine in birds is 50mg/kg bodyweight.
One sachet of Coxi Plus is sufficient for dissolving into 2 litres of drinking water (which is the daily ration for 40 pigeons or 20 kg total bodyweight).
A Coxi Plus treatment normally lasts 5 consecutive days.
In case of severe infection, it is advisable to treat the birds for a further 5 days two weeks after the initial treatment.
It may be advisable, particularly during the pigeon-racing season, to administer Coxi Plus prophylactically for 2 to 3 days every month.
Any unused Coxi Plus solution should be discarded and replaced with a newly prepared solution each day.
