Acute tonsillitis and acute pharyngitis show a high incidence in the healthy population. Recent microbiological studies have demonstrated changes in the frequency with which different microorganisms promote such infections. This fac, together with the variations in sensibility or resistance of germs to the diverse therapeutic agents, have led to the conclusion that penicillin must not be considered as the solo drug of choice in these infections.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.
