Ornistat

Ornistat is sold by Excellence as a water-soluble powder for Avian Malaria and Leukocytozoonosis, two blood parasite diseases in poultry.

What Is Actually In It

Excellence’s page names four active ingredients: Iron, Cobalt, Copper and Folic Acid, with no amount stated per gram or kilogram. The label describes these as “hematinic factors” that “help replace red blood cells destroyed by the disease,” which is a supportive role rather than a description of an agent that kills the parasite itself. This page reproduces exactly what Excellence states and does not add, or assume, any other active ingredient beyond these four.

What the Label Says It Is For

Excellence’s label calls Ornistat an “antimalarial drug of proven efficacy in treating Avian Malaria and Leukocytozoonosis in poultry.” That claim of proven efficacy is the manufacturer’s own wording; this page reproduces it as a quoted claim, not as a fact this page has independently verified.

Forms It Comes In

Excellence sells Ornistat as a water-soluble powder (WSP), dissolved in drinking water per the manufacturer’s dosage instructions.

Withdrawal Period

Excellence does not publish a withdrawal period for Ornistat. The absence of a published figure is not the same as a zero-day withdrawal. Anyone using this product ahead of slaughter or egg consumption should confirm timing with a veterinarian or agrivet.

What This Page Does Not Tell You

This page transcribes what Excellence publishes about Ornistat. It does not resolve how the four listed hematinic ingredients relate to the label’s antimalarial claim, does not confirm the product’s actual effect on avian malaria or leukocytozoonosis, and does not tell a reader whether a bird’s symptoms indicate either disease. Both conditions typically require blood smear confirmation to diagnose reliably. Bring your bird to a veterinarian, an agrivet, or the local agriculture office for diagnosis before treatment.
