Product Overview
Diclazuril is a benzeneacetonitrile anticoccidial agent belonging to the triazine class of compounds. It is highly effective against all Eimeria species affecting poultry, including E. tenella, E. acervulina, E. maxima, E. necatrix, and E. brunetti. Diclazuril acts on both the asexual and sexual stages of the parasite life cycle.
One of the key advantages of diclazuril is its excellent safety profile. It has very low toxicity in target animals and does not adversely affect feed intake, growth rate, or feed conversion ratio. It is compatible with most commonly used feed additives and veterinary drugs. Diclazuril is approved for use as a feed additive in broilers and has been widely adopted in commercial poultry production systems globally for the prevention of coccidiosis.
