Best Answer

Taking just one penicillin doesn't really do anything, as it works over a few days worth of therapy. Taking any penicillin product is not recommended without doctor's direction because it can make you more susceptible in the long run to more bacterial infections that are penicillin resistant.

Also, there shouldn't be any extra penicillin hanging around, because penicillin regimens should be continued until all the prescribed pills are taken, even after the infection is gone.
