Baycox 5% for Piglets

For the control of coccidiosis caused by Isospora suis in neonatal piglets. Isospora suis infection is a major cause of diarrhoea, dehydration, loss of appetite, poor growth and occasional mortality in piglets between birth and 3-4 weeks of age.

The mode of action of totrazuril against multiplying stages of the coccidian life cycle allows the infested animal to develop an immunity to future infections whilst effectively curbing the harmful effects of the current infection.

Baycox Piglet (5% Toltrazuril) provides highly effective control of neonatal swine coccidiosis in the form of a convenient treatment before clinical signs appear or harmful effects become established.

In piggeries affected by coccidiosis, a single oral treatment with 1 mL totrazuril (Baycox Piglet) per piglet at the age of 3 to 6 days has been found to yield excellent results.    This "metaphylactic" treatment prevents appearance of clinical signs and production losses, whilst allowing the development of immunity.  Intracellular stages of the parasite, damaged by toltrazuril, remain in the host cells for sufficient time to provide antigenic stimulus for the development of immunity to further infection.

Baycox C
Baycox C is for the treatment and prevention of coccidiosis in cattle up to 9 months caused by Eimeria bovis or Eimeria zuernii. Coccidiosis typically occurs in cattle less than a year old causing diarrhoea which is often blood stained. Recently weaned calves are particularly susceptible to outbreaks of clinical disease. One dose is effective because it attacks all stages of the parasite in the animal.
