Precautions & Warnings:
Penicillin should be used with caution in individuals with histories of significant allergies and/or asthma. The oral route of administration should not be relied upon in patients with severe illness, nausea, vomiting, gastric dilation, cardiospasm, or intestinal hypermotility.
Occasionally, patients may not absorb therapeutic amounts of orally administered penicillin.
In streptococcal infections, therapy must be sufficient to eliminate the organism (a minimum of 10 days); otherwise, sequelae of streptococcal disease may occur. Cultures should be taken following completion of treatment to confirm that streptococci have been eradicated.
Prolonged use of antibiotics may promote the overgrowth of nonsusceptible organisms, including fungi. If superinfection occurs, appropriate measures should be taken.
