Benzylpenicillin potassium (also known as penicillin G benzathine and usually sold under the brand Name Bicillin LA) is used to treat syphilis in all of its stages. Dosage varies by stage with Late Latent (when duration is greater than 12 months), Tertiary and Unknown Duration receiving three doses (usually each does is given in two shots), each one week apart. When the amount of time that the patient has been infected is not known it is assumed to be more than 12 months. Primary, Secondary and Early Latent syphilis are treated with a single dose. Bicillin LA, not Bicillin C-R, is used to treat syphilis. Treatment with Bicillin C-R is not considered adequate therapy and the patient should be retreated with Bicillin LA in the appropriate dosage. == Many bacterial infections such as : Cellulitis Bacterial endocarditis Gonorrhea Meningitis aspiration pneumonia, lung abscess Community-acquired pneumonia Syphilis Septicemia in children

Who treats cellulitis?

Treatment Antibiotic treatment is the only way to battle this potentially life-threatening infection. Mild to moderate cellulitis can be treated with the following antibiotics taken every four to eight hours by mouth: * penicillins (Bicillin, Wycillin, Pen Vee, V-Cillin) * erythromycin (E-Mycin, Ery-Tab) * cephalexin (Biocef, Keflex) * cloxacillin (Tegopen) Other medications may be recommended, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) to relieve pain, and aspirin to decrease fever. A normally healthy person is usually not hospitalized for mild or moderate cellulitis. General treatment measures include elevation of the infected area, rest, and application of warm, moist compresses to the infected area. The doctor will want to see the patient again to make sure that the antibiotic treatment is effective in stopping the infection. Persons at high risk for severe cellulitis will probably be hospitalized for treatment and monitoring. Antibiotics may be given intravenously to patients with severe cellulitis. Complications such as deep infection, or bone or joint infections, might require surgical drainage and a longer course of antibiotic treatment. Extensive tissue destruction may require plastic surgery to repair. In cases of orbital cellulitis caused by a sinus infection, surgery may be required to drain the sinuses.

What is the best treatment for strep throat?

The best treatment for streptococcal pharyngitis, commonly called "strep throat" is Bicillin (an injection of penicillin) and Decadron (an injectable steroid). The bacterium responsible for this illness, Streptococcus pyogenes, has not demonstrated significant resistance to penicillin, so this treatment continues to the first-line choice for the moment. A recent study in the Annals of Emergency Medicine indicated that the common practice of also giving a single injected dose of dexamethasone (Decadron) is also helpful in decreasing the severity and duration of the symptoms of strep throat.Of course, there are people who are allergic to penicillin, and for those individuals, it is standard practice to give erythromycin instead. For people who are not penicillin-allergic but refuse injections, a 10-day course of penicillin VK is also effective, but is a bit difficult to take correctly, as it requires four doses each day. Due to this difficulty, and the public health implications of failing to treat strep throat completely (it is extremely contagious), I usually strongly recommend the injection.
