Harrison's Booster Concentrate Monolaurin for Birds

Booster Concentrate is a pure distilled monolaurin dietary supplement, given orally, dosed by the bird's body weight.

Harrison's describe it as a non-toxic antimicrobial dietary supplement intended for use when a bird is acutely unwell, or is known to be infected with one of the microorganisms that monolaurin inactivated in their laboratory work.

Please read this part. A supplement is not a treatment and this page is not veterinary advice. Birds hide illness until they are very sick, and a bird that looks off today may have been unwell for weeks. If yours is unwell, the call to make is to an avian vet — and this is a product to use alongside their plan, not instead of it.

Dosing by weight

Those are the prophylactic amounts Harrison's publish. They note the dose may be increased up to fourfold where clinically indicated — a judgement for your vet to make, not for a product page.

What monolaurin is

Monolaurin is a monoglyceride derived from lauric acid, which occurs naturally in coconut oil and in mammalian milk. It has been studied for decades for its effect on lipid-enveloped organisms. Booster Concentrate is the pure distilled form rather than a coconut oil product.

Questions we get asked

Can I give it as a routine preventative?
Harrison's publish a prophylactic dose table, so some owners do. Discuss it with your vet — particularly for a bird already on medication.

How do I get it into a bird that will not take it?
Crushed into a small amount of Bird Bread or warm mash is the usual route.

Does it replace antibiotics?
No. It is a dietary supplement. Do not substitute it for prescribed treatment.

Can I use it for other animals?
Harrison's publish the dosing by body weight, which scales. Ask your vet first.
