Baxidil SE is UNAHCO’s water-soluble antibacterial powder, pairing Trimethoprim with Sulfadimethoxine.
What Is Actually In It
Baxidil SE names two active ingredients, Trimethoprim and Sulfadimethoxine, with no stated amounts on UNAHCO’s page. Trimethoprim paired with a sulfonamide like Sulfadimethoxine is a potentiated combination that broadens antibacterial coverage. These names are transcribed exactly as UNAHCO states them, and no amount is invented since none is given.
What the Label Says It Is For
UNAHCO’s label states Baxidil SE is for prevention and treatment of infections caused by Trimethoprim-Sulfadimethoxine combination-sensitive organisms, naming E. coli, Salmonella, Coccidiosis, Infectious Coryza and Fowl Cholera specifically, and states it should not be given to chicks 15 days old or younger. That is the manufacturer’s own claim and caution, reproduced above.
Forms It Comes In
Baxidil SE is sold as a water-soluble powder. UNAHCO’s dosage of 6 grams (or 1 teaspoon) per gallon of water, given twice a day for 3 to 5 days, is quoted verbatim in the box above; this body text does not repeat, convert, or adjust that figure.
Withdrawal Period
UNAHCO does not publish a withdrawal period for Baxidil SE. Absence of a published 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 UNAHCO publishes about Baxidil SE, including its own caution against use in chicks 15 days old or younger. It does not tell a reader whether a bird’s symptoms match E. coli, Salmonella, Coccidiosis, Coryza or Fowl Cholera specifically; several of these conditions need laboratory confirmation to tell apart. Take the bird’s symptoms to a veterinarian, an agrivet, or the local agriculture office before deciding on treatment.
