Clopidol

Clopidol

Clopidol is a highly effective coccidiostat widely used in poultry farming to prevent and control coccidiosis caused by Eimeria species. It works by interfering with mitochondrial electron transport in coccidia, inhibiting parasite development and replication. Clopidol is typically incorporated into feed premixes or administered as a medicated feed additive, providing uniform protection across flocks. Its stability, low toxicity, and proven efficacy make it a preferred choice for maintaining flock health, improving feed conversion, and reducing mortality associated with coccidial infections.
