Paracox®-8

Paracox-8* offers the most complete coccidiosis protection available for breeder and layer chickens, providing active immunization against seven species of Eimeria: Eimeria acervulina, E. brunetti, E. maxima (two strains), E. mitis, E. necatrix, E. praecox, and E. tenella. The precocious strains of coccidia will not revert to virulence.

The vaccine is administered through drinking water only, at a dose rate of 0.1 ml per chicken. It is packaged in two sizes — 100 ml (vaccinates 1,000 chickens) and 500 ml sachets (vaccinates 5,000 chickens).

Paracox-8 has also met rigorous efficacy requirements in both laboratory and field trials.

* Paracox-8 is known as Paracox in the UK.
