What is Diclazuril?

Chemical properties

Light yellow or off-white powder, almost insoluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, ether, soluble in N,N-2 methylformamide (DMF), dimethylsulfone (DMSO), tetrahydrofuran (THF).

The Uses of Diclazuril

Diclazuril is a triazinone antiprotozoal that Nucleotide analog with broad-spectrum anticoccidial activity. It has a control effect on a variety of coccidiosis, and is used to prevent coccidiosis in chickens, ducks, quails, turkeys, geese and rabbits.

What are the applications of Application

Diclazuril is a useful biochemical for proteomics research

Definition

ChEBI: 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-[2,6-dichloro-4-(3,5-dioxo-1,2,4-triazin-2-yl)phenyl]acetonitrile is a nitrile.

What are the applications of Application

Diclazuril is a less toxic, orally administered triazine antiprotozoal. It is widely used in veterinary medicine as a feed additive and veterinary drug. It is registered for oral use in broilers and lambs. Its use in cats (one dose of 25 mg/kg BW) is off-label only. It may be used clinically for the treatment of bovine protozoa. It is also used for the treatment of equine protozoan spinal cord encephalitis (EPM) caused by neuronal sarcocysts.

Veterinary Drugs and Treatments

Diclazuril is a coccidiostat. It is indicated for the treatment of equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM) caused by Sarcocystis neurona and as a coccidiostat in broiler chickens. Diclazuril could potentially be useful in treating coccidiosis, Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma infections in dogs or cats.
