| Management | Patients with preexisting anemia should preferably not receive chloramphenicol due to the drug's depressive effect on bone marrow and reticulocytes. If use is unavoidable, the lowest effective dosage of chloramphenicol should be given. Hematologic response to iron or vitamin B12 therapy should be closely monitored. | ||||||||
