COCCIDIOSIS TREATMENT FOR DOGS, CATS AND GUINEA PIGS.
What is Coccidiosis?
Coccidiosis can occur in all animals (including humans). Coccidiosis is a disease caused by unicellular parasites of the order Coccidia. This parasite nests in the intestinal mucosa and causes damage there. This causes mushy stools or diarrhoea. Many (healthy) animals go through an infection without being noticed. An animal will not die from infection with Coccidia, but can die from the consequences, especially with young animals this can be the case. Older animals that have a chronic disease that has reduced their natural resistance are also extra sensitive to the Coccidiosis infection. Pregnant animals also have an increased risk of infection.
Coccidiosis infection
The parasite lays eggs in the intestines and these come out with the faeces. Further contamination can be prevented by clearing up the faeces immediately and by thoroughly cleaning the places where the faeces are located. Also clean the coat well. The eggs can survive for weeks and sometimes even months in the environment and can withstand weather conditions such as heat and extreme cold. Other animals in the area can also be infected as a result. For caged animals, it is important that the cage is cleaned every day. The parasite needs 30 hours to develop into an infectious phase in the droppings. Cleaning the cage every day prevents reinfection. If you temporarily house your animal in a boarding house, ask the owner if he has a prevention plan and if he follows it. This includes daily steam cleaning or chemical disinfection, e.g. using cresols.
An animal can also be infected by eating raw meat. In this case the slaughtered animal (without having been ill itself) acts as an intermediate host, and the Coccidia have established themselves in the muscles, organs or brain of this animal. To avoid contamination, it is best to cook the meat. Coccidia, as far as is known, do not pass from one species of animal to another. So you or your cat cannot get infected by the dog. An exception to this is toxoplasmosis, caused by a certain species of Coccidia (Toxoplasmosis gondii). These are excreted by cats with the feces. Pregnant women should not clean the litter box themselves, or should wear gloves. An infection can lead to a miscarriage, or even to the death of a baby immediately after birth. You can only get toxoplasmosis once in your life, after that you are immune and there is no more danger.
Coccidiosis is present in all countries of Europe, traveling with your animal through Europe does not pose any additional risk. Depending on the country, 3-9% of all adult dogs and cats are infected with Coccidiosis.
It has therefore not yet been established that animals can transmit Coccidiosis to humans.
An infected animal can infect other animals (of the same species) via the feces after 6-10 days.
Symptoms of Coccidiosis
Diarrhea with mucus, usually dark in color to bloody
- Skinny with a distended abdomen, often with liver damage
- Staying behind in development, especially puppy or kitten
- Poor appetite
- Fluid loss and dehydration
- In a single case vomiting with or without abdominal pain
- Fever
Diagnosis Coccidiosis
This can be done through a stool test. The parasite can only be seen under the microscope. It is best to do this again after 6 weeks of treatment. A test for Coccidiosis does not give a 100% reliable result, it is therefore necessary to repeat it after a few weeks.
Treatment Coccidiosis
The vet's drugs can only slow down, but not stop, the parasite's development. And don't kill at all. Coccidiosis is therefore very harmful to health in the long term. Especially animals with a low natural resistance, including young animals in development, are susceptible to Coccidiosis. It is therefore important not only to kill the parasite, but also to quickly increase the natural resistance and to strengthen the intestinal mucosa. The Chinese herbal formula Zao Diao kills the Coccidiosis parasite and prevents the feces from being contagious to other animals. It is advisable to immediately use the Gastro to allow the intestinal mucosa to recover quickly. This is especially important for young animals, because the intestinal mucosa plays a major role in developing the natural resistance. Young animals that cannot build up a good natural resistance in the first year of their life remain susceptible to other diseases for the rest of their lives.
Zao Diao is not only a good but also an animal-friendly alternative to Procox, Sulfonamides, Clazuril, Diclazuril, Nicarbazine and Toltrazuril. It has no side effects. This can make it take longer if necessary.
