Liophilized Medication from Juvenile Drone Phase (LMJD) for treatment and prevention of balantidiosis of pigs is tested. LMJD in a doze of 4 ml/kg of body weight during 20 days in complex with Metronid-50 promotes treatment of pigs from balantidiosis and increase of body weight on the average 3,2 kg. LMJD which was given to piglets during 30-day course in the period of weaning in a doze of 1 ml/kg protects them from infection by balantidiosis. As a result of its applica- tion biochemical indices in serum normalized: the content of serum protein in- creased by 6,7–6,9 %, calcium – by 33, phosphorus – by 9 % .
