Pentids 200 Tablet

Pentids 200 Tablet is an antibiotic tablet containing Penicillin G 200 mg per tablet, manufactured by Abbott Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. It belongs to the penicillin class of antibiotics and is used to treat certain bacterial infections when a doctor confirms that penicillin is appropriate. Pentids 200 Tablet does not work for viral illnesses like colds or flu.

How it works: Penicillin G works by stopping bacteria from building a strong cell wall, so the bacteria break apart and die. Because Pentids 200 Tablet is an oral tablet, it delivers penicillin G by mouth for infections that your doctor feels can be treated with this form.

Pentids 200 Tablet is the lower-strength tablet in this product line, and it may be chosen when a smaller penicillin dose is needed or when a doctor wants finer dose adjustment. Compared with Pentids 400 Tablet, the 200 mg strength can be easier to tailor for some patients and may be preferred for milder infections or stepwise dosing decisions made by the prescriber.

• Strep throat and other streptococcal infections
• Certain ear, nose, and throat infections
• Some skin and soft tissue infections
• Other bacterial infections sensitive to penicillin G

• Swallow Pentids 200 Tablet with a full glass of water unless your doctor gives different directions.
• Take it at evenly spaced times as prescribed so the antibiotic level stays steady.
• You can take it with or without food, but taking it after a light meal may help if it upsets your stomach.
• Finish the full course even if you feel better sooner.
• Do not crush or split the tablet unless your pharmacist or doctor says it is okay.
• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose; do not double up.

Each Pentids 200 Tablet provides penicillin G 200 mg per tablet. The exact dose and how often you take it depend on the infection being treated, your age, and your kidney function, and a doctor decides the schedule. In practice, this strength may be taken multiple times per day, and the total daily amount should not exceed the amount your prescriber orders.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Penicillin G may include:

• Nausea
• Diarrhea
• Stomach upset
• Mild vomiting
• Rash
• Yeast infection

• Do not use Pentids 200 Tablet if you have a known allergy to penicillin or have ever had a serious reaction to beta-lactam antibiotics unless a doctor specifically advises it.
• Tell your doctor if you have kidney disease, because penicillin G may need closer monitoring or dose adjustment.
• Let your clinician know if you have a history of severe allergies, asthma, or hives, since allergic reactions can happen quickly.
• Use caution if you develop significant diarrhea during treatment, especially if it is severe, persistent, or bloody.
• Tell your doctor about all medicines you take, including blood thinners and probenecid, because interactions can change penicillin levels or bleeding risk.
• Do not use Pentids 200 Tablet for viral infections, because antibiotics do not treat viruses.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your clinician whether this specific penicillin treatment is appropriate for you.

• Probenecid
• Warfarin and other anticoagulants
• Methotrexate
• Oral live bacterial vaccines such as typhoid vaccine
• Other antibiotics that may reduce penicillin effectiveness depending on the infection
