COMPOSITION:

150mg Parvaquone per ml.

DESCRIPTION:

Parvaquone is an electron transport inhibitor, which specifically inhibits respiration in sporozoan parasites such as Theileria parva. Usually it does not completely eliminate the infection so cured animals continue to carry sub-clinical levels of infection. Parvaquone is of extremely low toxicity. It shows no adverse reaction with any commonly used veterinary medicines.

INDICATIONS:

Treatment of East Coast fever (ECF, Theilaria parva infection) of cattle. Parvaquone kills the schizont and piroplasm stages of the parasite. The product may be used in animals showing clinical signs of theileriosis and infected animals which have not yet displayed clinical signs.
