API Pharmacopoeia: Chinese Veterinary Pharmacopoeia

Decoquinate is a veterinary coccidiostat used to prevent coccidiosis in animals like cattle, sheep, goats, and poultry. It works by disrupting parasite energy production, stopping Eimeria species from developing. Usually mixed into feed, it’s safe and well tolerated, but mainly used preventively, not for active infections. It’s not for animals producing milk or eggs for human consumption.
