Have battling Coccidia with Albon, we were introduced to Marquis. We have yet to try it but wanted to hear some insight from others who may have used the product. What is the dosage you use? Did it work? How often did you use the product?

Sorry, I have never heard of it or used it. I have only ever had once experience with coccidia and Albon did the job.

Be interested to hear what other say.

I'm one of those really lucky folks to have that dreaded cocci in my dirt. I use Cocci-Guard from revival animal health, but it's not 100%.. My vet sells me the giant pharmaceutical bottle of Albon.. but revival sells it by the gallon, but it's probably dosed different from the banana flavored stuff from the vet.
I'm curious about the marquis...what is it and where do you get it?

Hey Guys, i did use Marquis, it did work i guess, they vet prescribe it because coccidia was really strong, and + yogurht+ baby pedialyte , they got better and gain a lot of weight, Good Luck

I also use Marquis because mine are in my yard, field on soil instead of cement kennels, so I always treat them. You can use Marquis as early as 2 weeks old. Unless there is a problem I don't give it until 4 weeks. Then I use it every other week until they leave at 8 weeks and we have never had a problem.

Before Marquis I would treat with Albon for weeks and it would still some times be a problem after the puppy went to a new home. It was very frustrating. Marquis is expensive, but I feel very much worth it.

Marguis comes in liquid form as well as paste. I know the liquid dosage is 1 cc per 4lbs. I don't recall the paste dosage, but your vet can tell you. It should eleminate coccidia in your kennel very very effective. I would also continue using albon because is good for other things.

I've used it many times to treat Coccidea in my cats and kittens and it works very well in one or two doses. Here's the dosage:

Marquis Paste

How to mix: 5cc of Marquis Paste with 12cc water. Store in light sensitive container. Shake thoroughly before administered.

Dosage: use 1cc mixed solution per 5 pounds.

For larger dogs: use the paste without mixing with water. This dosage of paste is 1cc per 15 pounds.
