VemoHerb® deCox

Prevention and treatment of coccidiosis in poultry
An Innovative SAFE & NATURAL Solution

VemoHerb® deCox’s proprietary blend of Artemisia spp. extract supports the prevention and treatment of coccidiosis hence reducing the economic impacts through enhanced feed conversion ratios and reduced mortality.

What is VemoHerb® deCox?

VemoHerb® deCox is formulated with a blend of herbs with a special emphasis on artemisinin, derived from Artemisia species for a natural control of coccidiosis. In contrast to many synthetic coccidiostats, this method does not develop drug-resistant Eimeria strains, which means that its effectiveness does not decrease with time. It mitigates gut inflammation, enhances recovery rates, and decreases mortality, making it a suitable option for poultry producers who are on constant lookout for better and safer solutions!

  • An alternative to synthetic products, which helps in the fight against coccidiosis and strengthens the immune system, resulting in healthier and more productive flocks; 
  • А cost-effective and risk-free solution to coccidiostats and vaccines; 
  • A phytogenic formula, which does not lead to and prevents the development of drug-resistant Eimeria strains.
  • Encourages recovery;
  • Reduces losses brought on by impacted growth and FCR;
  • Lowers mortality;
  • Diminishes oocyst shedding;
  • Reduces gut inflammation and speeds up healing;
  • Stimulates the immune response against numerous Eimeria sp.;
  • Prevents subsequent bacterial infections.
  • Resistance development: 

Overuse or misuse of anticoccidial drugs can result in drug-resistant strains of coccidia, making disease control more challenging and often requiring more expensive or alternative treatments.

  • Risk of secondary infections: 

Coccidiosis compromises the immune system, increasing their vulnerability to secondary infections. This not only complicates disease management but can also further impact flock health and productivity.

  • Rising treatment costs:

Managing coccidiosis comes with substantial costs, including the use of anticoccidial drugs, vaccines, and the labor required to treat infected flocks. These expenses can significantly impact a farmer’s overall profitability.  

VemoHerb® deCox can be used for:

  • prevention at the dosage of 200 g/t feed;
  • treatment at the dosage of 800 g/t feed.

Test groups: 

  1. Negative control – Chickens without challenge and treatment

  2. Positive control – Chickens were challenged at day 21 but untreated

  3. Diclazuril prevention – Chickens were challenged at day 21 and treated with 0.2 g/Kg of diclazuril (prevention dose) from day 1 to 42.

  4. Diclazuril treatment – Chickens were challenged at day 21 and treated with 0.2 g/Kg of diclazuril (prevention dose) from day 1 to 20 and treated with 0.8 g/Kg of diclazuril (treatment dose) from day 21 to 42.

  5. VemoHerb® deCox prevention – Chickens were challenged at day 21 and treated with 0.2 g/Kg of VemoHerb® deCox (prevention dose) from day 1 to 42.

  6. VemoHerb® deCox treatment – Chickens were challenged at day 21 and treated with 0.2 g/Kg of VemoHerb® deCox (prevention dose) from day 1 to 20 and treated with 0.8 g/Kg of VemoHerb® deCox (treatment dose) from day 21 to 42.

  7. Product B prevention – Chickens were challenged at day 21 and treated with 0.2 g/Kg of product B (prevention dose) from day 1 to 42.

  8. Product B treatment – Chickens were challenged at day 21 and treated with 0.2 g/Kg of product B (prevention dose) from day 1 to 20 and treated with 0.8 g/Kg of Product B (treatment dose) from day 21 to 42.

VemoHerb® deCox is based on the combination of herbal extracts, with the main ingredient of artemisinin from different Artemisia species.

Product B is based on concentrated plant steroidal saponins, extracted from Yucca and Trigonella species.

Score 1: mild pathological change; 

Score 2: moderate pathological change;

Score 3: hyper pathological change.

Among the challenged chickens, the lowest percentage of necrosis and epithelial tissue destruction was observed in the cecum and jejunum of chickens in the VemoHerb® deCox and diclazuril treatment groups.

Among the challenged groups, numerically, the lowest number of oocytes was counted in the feces of chickens fed with diclazuril and VemoHerb® deCox.
