Abstract

The penicillins are the safest and most commonly prescribed antibiotics in Australia, accounting for 7.8 per cent (8 million prescriptions) of all 'Pharmaceutical Benefit' prescriptions for the year 1977/78. The range of penicillins available covers a very wide spectrum of susceptible bacteria, and includes the majority of all bacterial infections seen by the general practitioner.
