Nicarbazin

Nicarbazin Premix is indicated to prevent coccidiosis in chickens by inhibiting the growth of Eimeria parasites.

Broiler Chickens: Used as an aid in the prevention of outbreaks of both cecal and intestinal coccidiosis caused by Eimeria tenella, E. acervulina, E. maxima, E. necatrix, and E. brunetti.
Starter and Grower Feeds: Employed to prevent deaths due to coccidiosis in chickens up to 12 weeks of age.
Replacement Chickens: Used to aid in preventing death, specifically for birds 8 weeks of age or older.
Mild Exposure Protection: Specifically indicated as an aid in preventing deaths under conditions of mild exposure.
Preventative Only: Not for use in treating active outbreaks of coccidiosis.

Target Species: Use only in broiler chickens (meat chickens).
Mixing:
- Thoroughly mix the Nicarbazin premix into the complete feed to ensure even distribution.
- Often, it’s recommended to first blend the required amount of premix with a small portion (e.g., 4-5 kg) of ground cereal before adding to the total ton of feed.
Dosage: Varies by product, but common rates are 0.01% to 0.02% in the finished feed (e.g., 125g to 500g per tonne).
Feeding:
- Provide the medicated feed as the sole ration.
- Feed continuously from placement (starter feed) up to market weight or a specified age (e.g., 14-28 days).
Withdrawal: Remove medicated feed at least 1-2 days before slaughter for human consumption.
