General Description

Thiamphenicol is an antibiotic. It is the methyl-sulfonyl analogue of chloramphenicol and has a similar spectrum of activity, but is 2.5 to 5 times as potent. Florfenicol, on the other hand, is a structural analogue of thiamphenicol that also lacks the p-nitro group, and it is more active than thiamphenicol. Neither thiamphenicol nor florfenicol are associated with dose-independent aplastic anemia in humans or any other species, but both are associated with dose-dependent bone marrow suppression.
