anedotal advice form long time reindeer farmer Dave Aldrich- use of Marquis (ponazuril) in reindeer

"You ask if anyone has usedponazuril in reindeer which rang a bell, so I looked back and two years ago we had a young steer with scours for an extremely long time that we couldn't clear up.  No coccidia detected or parasites of any type after numeroustests.  Our vet suggested Marquis after everything else has failed.  I quickly found out therewas not any Marquis (ponazuril) in the country to be purchased. and nof the suppliers knew when they'd  have any.  So our vet had some compounded at wedgewood pharmacy in swedesboro, NJ and had it quickly shipped It was recommended we give him 6ml oral paste per day for 5 dyas.  After the second doe the scours cleared up completely and didnt return.  Now this compounded product is Ponazuril, the same as the name brand Marquis.  As I see it, it is used to treat a variety of anikals.  What I know it sure worked great for us with whatever we are dealing with.  The next year we tried to buy Marquis againn to keep on hand although it is extremely expensive and again no one in the country had any.  Last spring we had our vet order us another 30ml tue from the compounder and we have one on hand.  Now I see that most of the veterinary pharmaceutical suppliers seem to have it in stock. I dont know if this helps any but we have used it safely in reindeer and wouldn't worry about using it again."
