Penicillin is a group of antibiotics that are commonly used to treat different types of gram positive and gram negative bacterial infections. The structure is also shared by semi-synthetic penicillin (amoxicillin), cephalosporins, and other antibiotics, such as imipenem. Penicillin V is the phenoxymethyl analog of penicillin G. Penicillin V potassium is the potassium salt of Penicillin V. Molecular Formula: C 16 H 17 O 5 KN 2 S Molecular Weight: 388.5. Penicillin is the precursor to amoxicillin, and both antibiotics are derived from a mold called Penicillium glaucum.The discovery of penicillin's effect on bacteria led to a revolution in medical treatment and the development of dozens of other antibiotics, including amoxicillin, which is a cheaper . 52 0 obj<>stream
