You take penicillin exactly as your doctor has told you to take it - do not take it if you have not seen a doctor and actually been tested to make sure you have an infection. It's not going to help if you have a virus, and will just make you resistant to it so it won't work in the future. Penicillin is usually taken every 6-12 hours however.

∙ 7y agoYes. Penicillin can be taken every four hours. But is is usually not needed. Your physician will give you usually three to four times a day. Even two times a day dose is enough to cure you of strep throat. But some times the patient may forget to take the dose. Then it becomes once a day dose. It is not enough to cure strep throat. So the wise physician will give a dose of penicillin three times a day. So even if one dose is missed, there is no problem.

Can my daughter of 130 lbs take 500mg of amoxicillin?
There is no reason that her weight would prevent her from taking 500mg of amoxicillin. However, i get the impression that they were not prescribed for her, as a single dose would not be prescribed by a doctor, as it would be useless. I would advise that she go see a doctor to see if she needs a FULL COURSE of antibiotics, and be careful as she may be allergic to penicillin.
