Cyadox is primarily used as a growth promoter in veterinary medicine, especially in livestock such as swine and poultry. It enhances feed efficiency and weight gain by modulating gut microbiota and improving nutrient utilization. Due to its antibacterial properties, it also helps in controlling certain enteric bacterial infections. Its application is favored in some regions as an alternative to other quinoxaline derivatives with better safety profiles. However, its use is regulated or restricted in many countries due to concerns over potential toxicological effects and residue formation in animal products.
