  • Pharmacological properties

    Florfenicol has a broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against Streptococcus spp., Salmonella spp., Escherichia coli, Proteus spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Pasteurella multocida, Pasteurella haemolytica, Bordetella bronchiseptica, Haemophilus spp., Klebsiella spp., Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale, Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, and Mycoplasma hyorhinis. Florfenicol is effective against acetyl transferase-producing bacteria, which are resistant to chloramphenicol. Florfenicol is a derivative of thiamphenicol, where a hydroxyl group is substituted with fluorine. Florfenicol has a bacteriostatic effect: it binds with the 70S ribosomal subunit in the bacterial cell protoplasm, thus blocking peptidyl transferase, which leads to the inhibition of protein synthesis in ribosomes of the sensitive microbial cell.

    Administered orally, florfenicol is well absorbed from the GI tract and gets into most organs and tissues, but does not penetrate through blood-tissue barriers. Bioavailability of florfenicol after oral administration is 88% in pigs and 55% in poultry. The antibiotic reaches its peak serum concentration in 1 hour and remains at the therapeutic level for at least 24 hours. The antibiotic and its metabolites are eliminated from the body of pigs mostly with urine and, to a lesser extent, with feces.

    Swine

    INDICATIONS 

    • Bacterial respiratory diseases, incl. pleuropneumonia, caused by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Haemophilus parasuis

    • Atrophic rhinitis caused by Pasteurella multocida, Bordetella bronchiseptica

    • Mycoplasma infections caused by M. hyopneumoniae, M. hyorhinis
