Product Overview for CORID
Coccidiosis is an enteric disease of the small and large intestines. Cattle can become infected by
coccidia (parasites) by ingesting feces-contaminated feed, grass and water — or by preening their, or
another animal’s, hair coat. Clinical coccidiosis in beef and dairy calves can cause bloody diarrhea,
dehydration, weight loss, reduced performance and even death.
CORID is FDA-approved as an aid in the prevention and treatment of coccidiosis caused by
Eimeria bovis and E. zurnii. The first and #1 selling1 coccidiostat labeled to help prevent and treat
coccidiosis outbreaks, CORID has three formulations to fit the needs of beef and dairy producers:
- 9.6% Oral Solution: gallons (four per case) and pints (12 per case)
- 20% Soluble Powder: 10-ounce packets (24 per case)
- Medicated Feed: CORID 1.25% and CORID 2.5% (crumbles/pellets are made by and available from
licensed feed manufacturers)
CORID also is approved for use in USDA Natural Beef and Never Ever 3 programs when used
according to the label.2,3
