[Penicillin levels in tonsillar tissue and serum after intramuscular and oral application (author's transl)]. 1976

R Chilla, and J Haubrich

Penicillin levels were determined in both serum and tonsillar tissue 1-2 h (29 patients) and 3-4 h (16 patients) after intramuscular application of Penicillin-G resp. oral doses of Penicillin-V. All tonsils were found to contain different amounts of Penicillin. Concentrations of antibiotic in the tonsillar tissues are dependent on the respective serum levels. The serum-tonsil-difference of the Penicillin levels increases significantly in adults. The efficiency of oral and intramuscular Penicillin application and the occasionally described failure of oral Penicillin medication are discussed with regard to the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) for group A streptococci.

D010400	Penicillin G	A penicillin derivative commonly used in the form of its sodium or potassium salts in the treatment of a variety of infections. It is effective against most gram-positive bacteria and against gram-negative cocci. It has also been used as an experimental convulsant because of its actions on GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID mediated synaptic transmission.

D010406	Penicillins	A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics.
