Frequently Asked Questions
What worms does Avitrol Plus treat?
Avitrol Plus is a broad-spectrum bird wormer that treats common internal parasites including roundworm, tapeworm, gape worm, gizzard worm, caecal worm and threadworm.
How do you administer Avitrol Plus?
The syrup is typically diluted in drinking water and provided as the sole water source for 24 hours, while tablets are dosed directly by bodyweight for individual birds.
What is the correct dosage?
Syrup: 1 drop per 10g bodyweight (or ~0.5mL in 20–25mL water) Tablets: 250–500g: ½ tablet 500–750g: 1 tablet 750g–1kg: 1½ tablets
Do you need to repeat treatment?
Yes. Birds should be treated twice, 14 days apart to break the parasite lifecycle and prevent reinfestation.
Can eggs be eaten after treatment?
Egg consumption is not recommended for at least 7 days, and use in laying poultry is considered off-label with no established withholding data, so caution is advised.
