Amprolium HCl（Cat No.:A000531）is a hydrochloride salt of amprolium, an effective anticoccidial agent used in veterinary medicine to prevent and treat coccidiosis in poultry and livestock. It acts as a competitive inhibitor of thiamine uptake in Eimeria species, disrupting their carbohydrate metabolism and halting parasite development. Amprolium HCl is commonly administered through feed or water, offering targeted action with minimal impact on the host. Its safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness make it an essential component in managing parasitic infections, enhancing animal health, and supporting agricultural productivity.
