PARACOX 8 : For the active immunisation of chickens against Eimeria acervulina, E. brunetti, E. maxima, E. mitis, E. necatrix, E. praecox and E. tenella. These are variants of Coccidiosis disease.
COMPOSITION
Paracox 8 is a translucent, viscous suspension of oocysts derived from 8 precocious lines of coccidia, presented as a live, attenuated, oral vaccine.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE – USE ONLY AS DIRECTED
ADMINISTRATION
Paracox 8 is for oral administration to chickens from 1 day of age by hatchery spray, or by drinking water from 5 to 9 days old.
VACCINATION
The minimum dose of vaccine is 0,1 ml per chicken. Each 100 ml sachet will provide sufficient vaccine for 1 000 chickens and each 500 ml sachet will provide sufficient vaccine for 5 000 chickens.
IMMUNITY
Food and water provided at any stage before or after vaccination must be free from anticoccidial agents including sulphonamides as well as antibacterial agents that have anticoccidial activity (viz. oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, furazolidone, nitrofurazone). Since immunity to coccidial infection following Paracox 8 administration is enhanced by natural challenge, it should be noted that access to any agents with anticoccidial activity at any time following vaccination may reduce the duration of effective immunity.
The vaccine will not actively immunise avian species other than the chicken against coccidiosis.
