gleptoferron Usage And Synthesis

Description

Gleptoferron is a macromolecular complex composed of β-hydroxide iron and dextran glucose heptanoate.

Uses

Gleptoferron is a veterinary medicine. It is used in young piglets on farms which have been affected in  the past by the parasitic infection coccidiosis to prevent diarrhoea caused by a new coccidiosis  infection.It is also used to reduce spread of the infection through passage of oocysts in faeces, and at the same time to  prevent iron deficiency anaemia due to the limited iron reserves of new-born piglets, low iron content  of milk and high growth rate of suckling piglets.

Mechanism of action

Gleptoferron is an antiparastic medicine which interferes with the enzymes needed by coccidia parasites to produce energy. As a result it is able to kill the parasites at all stages of their development and prevent the symptoms of coccidiosis and the spread of infection.
