Sulphaquinoxaline Base/Sodium

Sulphaquinoxaline Base/Sodium

Sulphaquinoxaline is a long-acting sulfonamide widely respected in veterinary medicine for its potent antiprotozoal and antibacterial properties. It is extensively used for the treatment and control of coccidiosis (caused by Eimeria species) in poultry and rabbits, as well as bacterial diseases like Fowl Cholera (Pasteurella multocida) and Fowl Typhoid. The product is available in two primary forms: Sulphaquinoxaline Sodium, which is highly water-soluble and ideal for rapid treatment via drinking water, and Sulphaquinoxaline Base, which is typically incorporated into feed premixes. Its mechanism involves blocking the synthesis of folic acid, effectively starving the parasites and bacteria. Sulphaquinoxaline is a critical tool for managing outbreaks in intensive farming, helping to reduce mortality and prevent economic losses due to intestinal diseases.
