Study of the Comparative Efficacy of Toltrazuril and Diclazuril against Ovine Coccidiosis in Housed Lambs

Abstract: A blinded, controlled and randomised field study was conducted on a sheep farm with a known history of coccidiosis and a high prevalence mainly of the pathogenic coccidium Eimeria ovinoidalis. The efficacy of treatment with toltrazuril (Baycox 5% suspension) against natural infections with Eimeria crandallis and/or Eimeria ovinoidalis in housed lambs was investigated in comparison with diclazuril and untreated controls. Both drugs were administered either metaphylactically (i.e., in the prepatency of Eimeria s… Show more

“…Previous studies have reported the efficacy and benefits of using toltrazuril 5% in lambs under different conditions (LE SUEUR et al, 2009;MUNDT et al, 2009;SCALA et al, 2014). In this study, toltrazuril 7.5%+Trimix™ showed high efficacy and reduced the OPG in three month old lambs in an extensive system (experiment 1) as well as in five month old sheep in an intensive system (experiment 2).…”

“…Scala et al (2014) demonstrated the benefits of treatment with toltrazuril for weight gain in weaned lambs, but Mundt et al (2009) and Saratsis et al (2013) did not find any significant increase in the body weight gains of treated lambs and control animals. The magnitude of the effects is dependent on the severity of the infection and the degree of contamination with pathogenic species (FITZGERALD & MANSFIELD, 1973).…”

“…Najskuteczniejszą metodą profilaktyki i zwalczania kokcydiozy w produkcji owczarskiej jest stosowanie chemioterapeutyków (3,5,10,12,16). Ponieważ ich powszechne i rutynowe stosowanie obarczone jest wieloma przeciwwskazaniami oraz ryzykiem rozwoju oporności, dlatego dopuszczenie i sposób użycia kokcydiostatyków szczegółowo regulują krajowe i unijne przepisy prawne.…”

“…(15), w stadach jagniąt utrzymywanych w systemie alkierzowym siewstwo oocyst wykazuje od 92,7% do 100% osobników. Dane te potwierdzają także inne prace europejskich autorów, w którzy wykazują ponad 90% ekstensywność inwazji u jagniąt w owczarniach (3,4,12). Wysoką ekstensywność eimeriozy od 55% do 100% potwierdziły również badania przeprowadzone w Polsce, co, jak podkreślają autorzy, jest związane z postępującą koncentracją i intensyfikacją hodowli (1,5,10).…”
