Dear Orobiyi Jubril, Infectious Larynotracheitis ( ILT) is a viral infection and there is no treatment for this. It can be control by vaccination of ILT vaccine in Layers & Breeders during rearing period at around 4-6 weeks & 10-12 weeks of age via Intra Ocular route. Dr. M. Akram

Usually commercial broilers are not being vaccinated against ILT. If you are in Karachi, you may visit my lab (MICRO LABORATORIES, Shahra-e- Faisal, 522, Anum Blessings. Tel. 021- 34385807) Pl. bring 4-5 fresh dead birds for diagnosis. Dr. M. Akram .
