Benefits of Clopidol

  • High Efficacy: Clopidol is highly effective in controlling coccidiosis, even during the early stages of infection.
  • Low Risk of Resistance: It is a valuable addition to rotation and shuttle programs, helping to manage resistance and maintain long-term anticoccidial efficacy.
  • Safe and Well-Tolerated: Clopidol is safe for poultry and has no adverse effects on growth, feed intake, or egg production when used as directed.

  • Stable in Feed: It is stable under various feed manufacturing and storage conditions, ensuring consistent performance.


Applications in Poultry Farming

Clopidol is administered as a premix in poultry feed at controlled dosages. It is suitable for use in broilers, breeders, and turkeys, providing continuous protection during critical growth phases. Incorporating Clopidol into an integrated disease management program helps prevent production losses caused by coccidiosis and ensures the health and productivity of poultry flocks.
