About Chloramphenicol
Chloramphenicol is effective against a wide variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including most anaerobic organisms. Due to resistance and safety concerns.
Chloramphenicol is used for the treatment of serious infections when the microorganism is resistant to less antibiotics and also when its ability to penetrate to the site of the infection is superior to less alternative antibiotics.
