Uses

As an aid in the prevention of coccidiosis in:

Broiler chickens and replacement pullets caused by

Growing turkeys up to 12 weeks caused by

Dosage and administration

200 g of Clinacox should be mixed per tonne of complete feed. To ensure thorough dispersion of the product it should first be mixed with a suitable quantity (20-50 kg) of feed ingredients before incorporation in the final mix. This results in a final concentration of 1 g diclazuril per tonne of feed (1 ppm).

For chickens, feed containing Clinacox may be given in pelleted or meal form and can be fed continuously as the only ration from one day old.

For turkeys, feed containing Clinacox may be given in pelleted or meal form and can be fed continuously from one day old up to a maximum age of 12 weeks.
