Florfenicol (marketed by Schering-Plough Animal Health under the trade name Nuflor) is a fluorinated synthetic analog of thiamphenicol. In the United States, florfenicol is currently indicated for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) associated with ''Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica'', ''Pasteurella multocida'', and ''Haemophilus somnus'', for treatment of bovine interdigital phlegmon (foot rot, acute interdigital necrobacillosis, infectious pododermatitis) associated with ''Fusobacterium necrophorum'' and ''Bacteroides melaninogenicus''. Florfenicol is also used in aquaculture, and is licensed for use in the United States for the control of enteric septicemia in catfish. The use of florfenicol in horses, and likely in other equids, typically causes diarrhea. This has been anecdotally reported to progress to lethal cases of acute colitis. Therefore, use of this antimicrobial in the equine patient should be limited to cases in which other, safer, options are not available. ==Contamination== Florfenicol was among the drug contaminants in a brand of supermarket eggs in Taiwan and Iran. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Florfenicol」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
