Axylin is Sagupaan’s antiprotozoal powder, combining Amprolium with Sulfaquinoxaline for Coccidiosis and Avian Malaria control.
What Is Actually In It
Per gram, the label states 150 mg of Amprolium and 150 mg of Sulfaquinoxaline. Amprolium is a coccidiostat that works by blocking the parasite’s thiamine uptake, and Sulfaquinoxaline is a sulfonamide antiprotozoal; neither is an antibiotic in the antibacterial sense, even though sulfonamides are also used against some bacteria. These figures are transcribed exactly as the label states them, with no conversion or rounding.
What the Label Says It Is For
The label states Axylin controls and treats Coccidiosis caused by six named Eimeria species, Leucocytozoonosis (also known as Avian Malaria), and other mixed infections. That is the manufacturer’s own claim, reproduced above.
Forms It Comes In
Axylin is sold as a water-soluble powder. The label gives the same dosage figure for both Coccidiosis treatment and Avian Malaria treatment, 5 grams per gallon (or 20 grams per 4 gallons) for 5 to 7 days, quoted verbatim in the box above. This body text does not repeat, convert, or adjust that figure.
Withdrawal Period
Sagupaan states a meat withdrawal period of 10 days for Axylin, meaning 10 days must pass between the last dose and slaughter. The manufacturer does not publish a separate withdrawal period for eggs from treated hens. Absence of a published egg figure is not the same as a zero-day withdrawal, and it is not treated as one here.
What This Page Does Not Tell You
This page transcribes what is published about Axylin. It does not tell a reader whether a bird’s symptoms indicate Coccidiosis, Avian Malaria, or something else entirely; the two diseases the label names can present similarly and typically need veterinary or laboratory confirmation to distinguish. Take the bird’s symptoms to a veterinarian, an agrivet, or the local agriculture office before deciding on treatment.
