Toltrazuril sulfone(Cat No.:I004592), also known as ponazuril, is an active metabolite of toltrazuril, widely used as an antiprotozoal agent in veterinary medicine. It is particularly effective against Eimeria and Sarcocystis species, which cause coccidiosis and equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM), respectively. Toltrazuril sulfone works by disrupting parasite energy metabolism, inhibiting their growth and reproduction. With its long-lasting efficacy and favorable safety profile, it is administered orally, often as a part of prophylactic or therapeutic treatment regimens. This metabolite plays a crucial role in maintaining animal health and productivity in agricultural and equine practices.
