-cidal means it kills, -stat means it inhibits growth and reproduction. So, a coccidiocidal drug kills coccidia. A coccidiostat, like amprolium, still requires a competent immune system to attack the organism to rid it from the body...but it is held in check until that can be accomplished. "Stats" are used more often than "cides" because they tend to have less side effects and a larger margin for dosing error as a whole.
Lasalocid is a lot less safe than amprolium. Even though it's not covered by the regulation, I would be very hesitant to use it without veterinary oversight because it will kill your birds if it isn't used properly (as well as dogs/horses, as previously mentioned).
