Chloramphenicol Palmitate

Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic useful for the treatment of a number of bacterial infections.[2] This includes meningitis, plague, cholera, and typhoid fever. Its use is only recommended when safer antibiotics cannot be used. Monitoring both blood levels of the medication and blood cell levels every two days is recommended during treatment.[2] It is available intravenously, by mouth, and as an eye ointment.[1][3]
