Decoquinate is a quinolone derivative that is used in the control of coccidiosis in domestic animals. Decoquinate treats and prevents coccidiosis in chickens, cattle, goats, sheep, etc. Decoquinate acts on sporozoites development and prevents their penetration of the gut epithelium. Decoquinate inhibits mitochondrial respiration and electron transport in Eimeria.
