they died
A horse should be given penicillin when a veterinarian determines the horse has a bacterial infection that will respond to the penicillin.
Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin, he left it in a petri dish for 2 weeks whilst he was on holiday when the got back there was a ring shape of mould, he then tested it on 8 mice and 4 were given penicillin they lived, four weren't and they died! To me this answer is good as it helped four mice survive, it also helped soldiers get better in world war 1!
Yes, penicillin can cure boils. The penicillin usually given for boils is Flucloxacillin. If a person is allergic to penicillin, they will be given a different antibiotic.
Yes, most injectable penicillin formulations are designed to be given intramuscular.
If you are talking about WWI trenches, given that penicillin was discovered in 1938, no, it did not help
The miracle drug
1. Probenecid inhibits the tubular secretion of penicillin thus increasing the serum concentration of penicillin. 2. Lesser dose of Penicillin is needed 3. Therefore, there will be less side effects of penicillin.
penicillin
Penicillin has very large margin of safety. Usual adult dose of procaine penicillin is 600,000 I.U. (International units) per day. The adult dose of penicillin can be given up to 24 million I. U. of crystalline penicillin per day in meningitis. The first dose of penicillin, that was given to the patient as trial dose was only 5000 I.U. few times per day. It was given during second world war. The most wonderful thing that this small dose did work. The patient started to improve. Later on died of infection, only because the stock of penicillin got exhausted.
It should be given in the muscle.
