Penicillin Treatment

Penicillin is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections by killing or stopping the growth of bacteria. It works by weakening the bacterial cell walls, causing the bacteria to rupture and die. Penicillin is effective against many common infections, such as strep throat, skin infections, and pneumonia. It is usually administered through injections or oral tablets, and the treatment duration depends on the infection. It’s important to complete the full course of treatment to ensure all bacteria are eliminated and to prevent antibiotic resistance. Penicillin is generally safe, but some people may experience allergic reactions.
