Pharmacological Properties

E.S.Dad Powder is a scientifically balanced formulation combining two potent anticoccidial agents—sulphadimidine and diaveridine—that act synergistically to eliminate all types of Eimeria spp. in poultry and young ruminants.

The inclusion of menadione (vitamin K₃) supports blood clotting and reduces the risk of hemorrhagic complications, enhancing the product’s safety profile. This combination is well-tolerated and has no negative impact on egg production or hatchability.

Target Species

  • Poultry (broilers, pullets, layers, and breeders)
  • Calves
  • Sheep
  • Goats

Indications for Use

E.S.Dad Powder is indicated for the treatment and control of coccidiosis in poultry and small ruminants.

It is particularly effective in cases where multiple Eimeria species are involved.
Note: Diaveridine enhances the effectiveness of sulphonamides through synergistic action, leading to superior therapeutic outcomes.

Contraindications

None known when used as directed

Undesirable Effects
