Manufacturers Description:

One cellulose coated Metronidazole tab stops regurgitation and is 93% effective.

The ultimate single dose treatment of Trichomoniasis (cropcanker) in pigeons and raptors. Metronidazole, the active ingredient in Meditrich, is one of the safest and most effective treatments against Trichomoniasis in pigeons and raptors.

Metronidazole is not water-soluble and causes severe regurgitation if dosed in its pure form – the unique “Medpet cellulose coating” of the Metronidazole tablet overcomes both these problems. One tablet dosed to pigeons will cure up to 93% of Trichomoniasis cases.

Usage:

It is recommended that “youngsters” be dosed with Meditrich on the day of weaning.It is advisable to alternate Meditrich treatment with Medizole and Cankerex to prevent the parasites becoming resistant to treatment. Dose 1 Meditrich tablet per pigeon once a month during the race season.
