有害性の概要Allergic contact dermatitis reported in pharmaceutical workers[Marks, p. 189-90] Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic, and many side effects have been reported after ingestion of therapeutic doses including, rarely, bone marrow suppression. [HSDB] The lowest dose to cause reversible bone marrow depression was 2000 mg/day for 21 days. While the reversible bone marrow depression is dose related, the rare aplastic anemia is not dose related and is thought to be an idiosyncratic reaction in susceptible individuals. IARC has noted cases of leukemia developing in patients suffering from chloramphenicol-induced aplastic anemia. Occupational allergic dermatitis reported in ophthalmologists and farmers using topical chloramphenicol solutionsNo evidence of significant skin absorptionToxic to embryos and fetuses in animal studies at 1000 mg/kg-day[AIHA]

相互作用Chloramphenicol-treated patient may respond poorly to cyanocobalamin therapy since chloramphenicol interferes with erythrocyte maturation.Concurrent therapy with other drugs that may cause bone marrow depression should be avoided.Chloramphenicol antagonizes the action of such antibiotics as penicillin and streptomycin, which act only on growing cells, but is synergistic to tetracycline, which also acts by inhibiting protein synthesis. It is possible the chloramphenicol would produce similar synergism with other antibiotics which act by inhibiting protein synthesis.Clinical observations in man and corresponding investigations in laboratory animals experimentally infected with various pathogenic bacteria have shown that a combination of chloramphenicol with gamma-globulin or specific antisera has a greater therapeutic effect than would be expected from a mere addition of the individual effects.For more Interactions (Complete) data for Chloramphenicol (26 total), please visit the HSDB record page.
健康影響The most serious adverse effect associated with chloramphenicol treatment is bone marrow toxicity, which may occur in two distinct forms: 1) bone marrow suppression, which is a direct toxic effect of the drug and is usually reversible, and 2) aplastic anemia, which is idiosyncratic (rare, unpredictable) and generally fatal. Other less serious reactions from chloramphenicol use include fever, rashes, headache, and confusion. Use of intravenous chloramphenicol has also been associated with gray baby syndrome, a phenomenon resulting from newborn infants' inability to metabolize chloramphenicol in the liver via UDP-glucuronyl transferase. Gray baby syndrome is characterized by vomiting, ashen gray color of the skin, limp body tone, hypotension and cyanosis.
HepatotoxicityA proportion of patients with blood dyscrasias due to chloramphenicol also developed clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice, usually occurring before the appearance of aplastic anemia or severe thrombocytopenia. Jaundice arises in 10% to 25% of cases of aplastic anemia, usually within 1 to 2 months of starting chloramphenicol and often shortly after it is stopped. Aplastic anemia and the accompanying liver injury occur most frequently in patients who receive multiple courses of chloramphenicol or prolonged therapy. The serum enzyme pattern is usually hepatocellular and the clinical presentation is an acute hepatitis-like syndrome with onset of fatigue, nausea, anorexia and abdominal discomfort followed by dark urine and jaundice. Rare instances have a cholestatic pattern of presentation with jaundice and itching and prominent elevations in alkaline phosphatase. Some cases occur in the absence of bone marrow involvement. Immunoallergic and autoimmune features are rarely present. The course is self-limited in most instances, but examples of acute liver failure have been reported, particularly in patients without aplastic anemia. In most cases, however, the liver injury associated with chloramphenicol use is eclipsed by the severe bone marrow aplasia.

環境中動態TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 1150(2), indicates that chloramphenicol is expected to have low mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of chloramphenicol from moist soil surfaces is not expected(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.3X10-18 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(3). Chloramphenicol is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 1.7X10-12 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(3). Half-lives in marine and freshwater sediment of 2.4 to 18.4 days and <12 days, respectively, indicate that biodegradation may occur in terrestrial environments(4).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 1150(2), indicates that chloramphenicol is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.3X10-18 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). Chloramphenicol is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions(3). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 1(SRC), from its log Kow of 1.14(6) and a regression-derived equation(4), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Aerobic and anaerobic half-lives in marine sediment are reported as 2.4-18.4 and 0.4-2.4 days, in freshwater sediment respective half-lives of <12 and < 4 days were reported, these half-lives indicate that biodegradation may occur in aquatic environments(7).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), chloramphenicol, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 1.7X10-12 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(2), is expected to exist solely in the particulate phase in the ambient atmosphere. Particulate-phase chloramphenicol may be removed from the air by wet and dry deposition(SRC). Chloramphenicol contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(3) and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

有害作用Aplastic anemia - The presence of increased methemoglobin in the bloodthe compound is classified as primary toxic effect.Chloramphenicol is associated with severe hematological side effects when administered systemically. Since 1982, chloramphenicol has reportedly caused fatal aplastic anemia, with possible increased risk when taken together with cimetidine. This adverse side effect can occur even with the topical administration of the drug, which is most likely due to the systemic absorption of the drug after topical application.
暴露経路Rapidly and completely absorbed from gastrointestinal tract following oral administration (bioavailability 80%). Well absorbed following intramuscular administration (bioavailability 70%). Intraocular and some systemic absorption also occurs after topical application to the eye.

毒性の概要IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic for human and veterinary use, originally isolated from the soil bacterium Streptomyces venzeuelae. HUMAN STUDIES: Chloramphenicol is known to produce major adverse effects in humans. One of these is generally irreversible aplastic anemia and reversible bone marrow suppression. A link between chloramphenicol and liver disease has been noted. Acute myeloid leukemia is also associated with chloramphenicol exposure. Neonates, especially if premature, may develop a serious illness termed "gray baby syndrome" if exposed to excessive doses of chloramphenicol. This syndrome usually begins 2-9 days (average of 4 days) after treatment is started. Within the first 24 hours, vomiting, refusal to suck, irregular and rapid respiration, abdominal distention, periods of cyanosis, and passage of loose green stools occur. The children are severely ill by the end of the first day, and in the next 24 hours turn an ashen-gray color and become flaccid and hypothermic. A similar "gray syndrome" has been reported in adults who were accidentally overdosed with the drug. Allergic contact dermatitis has been noted from a patient using a topical cream containing chloramphenicol. Optic neuritis and scotoma with failing vision has also been reported. Chloramphenicol has been implicated in cleft lip. Chromosomal anomalies were noted in human lymphocytes treated with chloramphenicol in vitro. ANIMAL STUDIES: After three groups of ten 3-month old mice were given daily intraperitoneal injections of chloramphenicol at 20, 40 or 100 mg/kg bw for 3 months, splenomegaly, hepatomegaly, lymph adenopathy and hypertrophy of the thymus occurred in a dose-dependent fashion. An increased incidence in lymphomas in two strains of mice were noted after exposure to chloramphenicol in drinking water. Chloramphenicol has been shown to cause DNA strand breaks in bacterial cells and to inhibit DNA synthesis in lymphocytes and in the phage of Escherichia coli. Chromosomal anomalies were noted in mouse bone marrow cells given chloramphenicol ip or im in F1 generation mouse liver. When groups of 3-9 female Sprague-Dawley rats were given chloramphenicol in drinking water with or without exposure to short duration high intensity noise, ototoxicity was noted. Oral doses of this antibiotic suppressed paradoxical sleep in cats. Chloramphenicol administered to pregnant monkeys had no effect on fetal development. High oral doses of chloramphenicol of 500-2000 mg/kg to rats and mice and of 500 and 1000 mg/kg to rabbits produced high incidences of embryonic and fetal deaths and fetal growth retardation in all three species. Teratogenic effects, predominantly umbilical hernia, were observed only in rats. The pregnant animals showed no toxic sign, except that those given the highest dose gained significantly less weight than controls. Progeny of chloramphenicol-treated mice had reduced learning ability, higher brain seizure threshold and poorer performance in the open-field test. ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: Chloramphenicol was added to cultures of one freshwater green alga, Chlorella pyrenoidosa, and two marine algae, Isochrysis galbana and Tetraselmis chui. It was more toxic to the freshwater algae. Chloramphenicol exposure could significantly inhibit the growth of Scenedesmus obliquus, while Chlorella pyrenoidosa exhibited less sensitivity. Abnormal behavioral changes were observed in fish Clarias gariepinus exposed to chloramphenicol. Hematological parameters were also affected. In Egyptian toads (Bufo regularis) given a dose of chloramphenicol of 5 mg/40 g body weight for 12 weeks, it induced numerous, severe ultrastructural changes in almost all types of leukocytes.Chloramphenicol can be fatal in an overdosethis usually occurs with intravenous administration of the drug and is more likely to affect infants. Symptoms of poisoning include nausea and vomiting, abdominal distension, metabolic acidosis, hypotension, hypothermia, cardiovascular collapse, and coma.Chloramphenicol targets the large 39S subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome thereby deactivation mitochondrial protein synthesis. As a result chloramphenicol is cytotoxic to the most metabolically active cells or tissues including the heart, liver, thymus and bone-marrow. (A7823). The likely target of chloramphenicol is the 16S rRNA molecule in the mitochondrial ribosome, which is analogous to the 23S rRNA in bacterial ribosomes.
生態毒性抜粋/AQUATIC SPECIES/ This study investigated the growth inhibition effects of three phenicol antibiotics on microalgae used in aquaculture. Different dose levels of chloramphenicol (CAP), florfenicol (FF), and thiamphenicol (TAP) were added to cultures of one freshwater green alga, Chlorella pyrenoidosa, and two marine algae, Isochrysis galbana and Tetraselmis chui. For the two marine algae, FF showed higher toxicity levels (EC50, 1.3-8 mg/L) than CAP (4-41 mg/L) and TAP (38-158 mg/L). CAP was more toxic to the freshwater algae (EC50, 14 mg/L) than FF (215 mg/L) and TAP (1283 mg/L). TAP was the least toxic to the three algae, but maintained the highest stability during the test period. Among the tested algae, T. chui was the species most sensitive to the three antibiotics. This study demonstrates that all three phenicol antibiotics can inhibit growth of the three microalgae and should be carefully used in aquaculture./AQUATIC SPECIES/ ... The present work aimed to assess the persistence of chloramphenicol (a banned but illegally used antibiotic) in seawater, together with its effects on the growth of the green macroalgae Ulva lactuca. Moreover, the potential use of this species as a bioindicator was assessed. Results showed CAP presented an exponential degradation pattern in seawater with concentrations decreasing faster than expected. As for the effects on U. lactuca it acted as a growth promoter also contradicting the initial assumptions. Regarding the role of this species in biomonitoring it successfully took up CAP in solution while reflecting the concentrations present conferring it good characteristics as a bioindicator. On the other hand, this ability points to a possibility of CAP being accumulated and transferred along the trophic web through the consumption of U. lactuca by organisms in higher levels./AQUATIC SPECIES/ ... The indoor experiments were ... to observe and analyze the chloramphenicol (CAP) induced changes /on Scenedesmus obliquus and Chlorella pyrenoidosa/. Results of the observations ... showed that CAP exposure could significantly inhibit the growth of Scenedesmus obliquus in almost all the treated groups, while Chlorella pyrenoidosa exhibited less sensitivity. Chlorophyll-a syntheses of Scenedesmus obliquus were all inhibited by CAP exposure, while Chlorella pyrenoidosa displayed obvious stimulation effect. Catalase (CAT) and Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities of both algae were promoted in all the treatments. The experimental results indicated that the growth and Chlorophyll-a syntheses of Scenedesmus obliquus were more sensitive in response to CAP exposure than that of Chlorella pyrenoidosa. While for CAT and SOD activities, Chlorella pyrenoidosa showed more susceptible. .../AQUATIC SPECIES/ The present study was aimed at evaluating the effects of different concentrations of the most commonly used fish antimicrobial drug, chloramphenicol (CAP), on the behavior and hematological parameters of Clarias gariepinus. Fish specimens were exposed to three (2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 mg/L) sublethal concentrations of CAP and a control. Abnormal behavioral changes were observed in fish exposed to higher concentration of CAP. Blood erythrocytes were sampled on days 1, 5, 10 and 15 postexposure to evaluate hematological parameters. Results showed concentration- and time-dependent significant increase in packed cell volume after day 5 of exposure (p<0.05). Hemoglobin values also significantly decreased from day 5, whereas values of mean cellular volume significantly decreased throughout the experimental period (p<0.05). A mixed trend was observed in the mean values of red blood cells, white blood cells, mean cellular hemoglobin and mean cellular hemoglobin concentration as well as neutrophils. Activities of lymphocytes were significantly increased in all CAP-treated fish during the exposure period, whereas no significant differences were observed in values of monocytes, eosinophils and basophils among the treatment groups and control. Consequently, precautions must be taken, especially when high concentrations of CAP are used in long-term treatments of C. gariepinus in aquaculture.For more Ecotoxicity Excerpts (Complete) data for Chloramphenicol (6 total), please visit the HSDB record page.
