Ascarex Piperazine Citrate – Roundworm Dewormer for Poultry and Livestock

Ascarex Piperazine Citrate is a widely used oral anthelmintic (dewormer) formulated to treat roundworm infestations in poultry, pigs, and other livestock. It provides fast-acting, targeted parasite control, improving animal health, productivity, and weight gain without stress or complications.

What is Piperazine Citrate?

Piperazine Citrate is an organic compound used in veterinary medicine to paralyze and expel gastrointestinal roundworms, especially in poultry and pigs. It is among the safest and most effective dewormers available for young and adult animals, with minimal side effects and high tolerance levels.

The active ingredient paralyzes the roundworms, allowing them to be passed out naturally through feces without damaging the intestinal lining. This makes Ascarex Piperazine Citrate an ideal first-line dewormer for routine worm control programs.

Key Benefits of Ascarex Piperazine Citrate

• Eliminates large roundworms in poultry and pigs
• Safe for chicks, piglets, growers, and layers
• Improves feed conversion and weight gain
• No harsh side effects when administered correctly
• Easy to administer via drinking water or feed

Why Deworming is Essential

Worm infestations in poultry and pigs can severely affect productivity, health, and even survival. Roundworms compete for nutrients in the gut, leading to poor growth, diarrhea, emaciation, and low egg or meat yield. Ascarex Piperazine Citrate helps maintain parasite-free animals, improving animal health and commercial output.
