endocarditis
13. Adverse Effect: Hypersensitivity, G.I upset, potassium poisoning, irritation at injection site.
14. Nursing Implications: give oral form on an empty stomach with a full glass of water; IV solutions are

amebiasis, acne, staphylococcal and streptococcal infections.

74. Nursing Implications:
75. -Take on empty stomach with a full glass of water.
76. -G.I symptoms are dose related
77. -do not give with acids

wall synthesis, reduces free fatty acids from triglycerides thus reducing acne lesions

typoid fever.
101.
*Chloramphenicol is used only in severe infections when other antibiotics can not be used due to
its severe adverse effect of aplastic anemia.

collapse.
