Composition and pharmacological action

Solidox does not contain carcinogens, does not accumulate in the liver and animal tissues... Provides reliable prophylaxis throughout the life of rabbits. It can be given to adults regularly until slaughter.

A drug acts on the animal's body quite mildly, but destroys parasites quickly and efficiently. He fights most severely with coccidia at the nonsexual stages of the endogenous cycle of their development.

Indications for use

Solicox is used in the treatment of coxidiosis - a disease in which the liver and intestinal tract of rabbits are affected. They become lethargic and passive, lose their appetite, stunted. Diarrhea and bloating are observed in sick animals.

At autopsy many white hard nodules are found on the intestinal mucosa... In case of liver damage, the organ increases 5-7 times, the bile ducts thicken. The mucous membranes of the animal's eyes turn yellow.

Coxidiosis spreads quickly and can infect all pets. Immunity decreases in weakened animalsand they become susceptible to other, more serious infections. If you do not start treatment on time, the animals can become severely depleted and die.

Scientists know 10 types of coccidia. Only one of them parasitizes in the liver, the other 9 in the intestines. Often in rabbits, simultaneous damage to the intestine and liver is observed.

The simplest parasites multiply especially actively in unsanitary conditions, in utility rooms with poor ventilation or drafts. Animals can become infected through food, bedding, and the feces of other animals.... Rabbits become infected through the mother's nipples.

Disinfection of cells in case of an outbreak of the disease, it does not give special results. The disease affects rabbits all year round, but worsens in the spring and summer. Adults are more likely to be carriers of the disease.

The latent period of the disease lasts 2-3 days. Coxidiosis can be caused by:

• One-type feed, protein overfeeding;
• Lack of vitamins in the diet and nutrients;
• Crowded rabbits tightness;
• Content in one cage individuals of different sexes;
• Lack of cleanliness in cells, dampness;
• Low quality, spoiled feed.

Only a veterinarian can make a correct diagnosis. Some symptoms of coccidiosis can be confused with signs of other diseases.

But in any case, the main substance of Solicox destroys not only coccidia, but also other parasites of the digestive system. Therefore, the benefits of the medicine will be twofold.

Reviews of rabbit breeders

Vladimir, Samara: Unfortunately, I have had bitter experience with coccidosis. Once I lost a whole livestock of rabbits from it. Now I am focusing on prevention. I do not wait for the young to get sick, but give Solicox to the rabbits immediately after weaning from the rabbit. I drip 0.2 ml each on the first day using a pipette. It seems to me that drinking in this way is better than diluting with water. The next day, as it is written in the instructions, I already give 0.3 ml, and on the third day - 0.4. Now I have forgotten what coccidosis is! Very long and I advise everyone.

Sergey, Pskov: I have been buying Solidox for rabbits for several years in a row and it has never let me down. It is very convenient to use - I draw it into a syringe without a needle and solder each animal separately.They are healthy and active rabbits!

I thought rabbits were easy to keep, but they turned out to be very gentle and vulnerable. They require careful care and appropriate conditions. Special attention should be paid to the health of the rabbits. I realized this when my animals got sick and I was just in despair. I went to the veterinarian, he advised the drug Solicox. Give it according to the scheme, as expected. A very good medicine!

Marina, Sumy: Before breeding rabbits, I decided to study well the conditions of their keeping, as well as possible diseases. I found information about Solidox, and after its successful use I was glad that I was not mistaken in my choice. Now it doesn't come out of my veterinary medicine cabinet.
