Penicillin G Potassium

It is non-flammable but combustible, offering greater stability compared to other penicillin forms. This makes it widely used in clinical and scientific research as well as pharmaceutical formulations.

Applications:

1. Medical Use:
   Penicillin G Potassium is extensively used to treat bacterial infections caused by penicillin-sensitive pathogens, including respiratory, urinary, skin, ear, and soft tissue infections. It is particularly effective against bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus.

2. Scientific Research:

   • Used in laboratories to study antibiotic mechanisms, bacterial resistance, and as a positive control in antibiotic susceptibility testing.
   • Supports investigations into drug development and pharmacological studies.

3. Pharmaceutical Industry:

   • Serves as a key ingredient in manufacturing other penicillin derivatives.
   • Used in injectable formulations for treating severe bacterial infections in hospital settings.
