A penicillin shot typically begins to work within a few hours, but the full effects may take a day or more to become apparent, depending on the infection being treated. It is normal for the injection site to be sore, swollen, or even slightly bruised for a few days after the shot. If the pain or swelling persists or worsens, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional.

What form of penicillin was used before penicillin pills were developed in the 1960?

One form I know for sure is injection penicillin. One of my close friend Judy from USA was born in 1939. She was 7 years old, when she received penicillin shots. Her cousins used to admire the sites of shot. The first dose used was injection only. Penicillin G is easily destroyed by gastric acid. Only penicillin V is effective orally. It must have been invented later than 1960.

Is your body back to normal if you have regular periods after being on the injection?

Yes, if you have not received an injection in 6 months or more and you did not have regular periods while taking the injection. The depo-provera shot suppresses ovulation. Once you begin having regular periods again, then your body should have returned to normal. However, many women still have periods, even when on this type of birth control, so after being off of the injection for several months and once you begin regular periods again, you need to check for ovulation using an ovulation predictor kit, just to make sure. However, realize that it may take as long as 18 months after the last depo-provera shot for periods to return to normal.
