Metronidazole 20% Powder for Pet Birds – Antiprotozoal & Digestive Support, 100 g

Metronidazole 20% Powder for Pet Birds is a concentrated avian powder containing 20% metronidazole, equivalent to 20 g of metronidazole per 100 g of finished powder. The resealable 100 g pouch is positioned for veterinary-directed antiprotozoal and digestive-health management in companion and ornamental birds.

Metronidazole is an established veterinary active ingredient with antiprotozoal activity and activity against certain anaerobic organisms. In bird care, an avian veterinarian may consider it for selected concerns such as trichomoniasis (often called canker), giardia, or other diagnosed conditions where the active ingredient is appropriate.

Metronidazole 20% Powder at a Glance

Metronidazole for Canker and Protozoal Concerns

“Canker” is a common bird-owner term associated with avian trichomoniasis, particularly in pigeons and doves. Bird keepers may also search for metronidazole for birds, metronidazole for pigeons, bird canker powder, trichomoniasis support, and avian antiprotozoal powder.

These terms do not replace a diagnosis. Mouth or crop changes, swallowing difficulty, altered droppings, reduced appetite, weight loss, and lethargy can have several causes. A veterinarian should evaluate the bird and determine whether metronidazole is suitable.

Water-Mixable Powder Format

The powder format is designed to be prepared according to the directions printed on the package. A water-mixable presentation can be practical in managed aviary or multi-bird environments, but the exact preparation, amount, frequency, and duration should come from the current label and veterinary care plan.
