Vaginal Absorption of Penicillin | John Rock

3 Jan 1947 | Journal: | Science, 105 (2714), 13 | Abstract: | Except during the last two months of pregnancy, penicillin is easily absorbed from cocoa butter suppositories in the vagina, ordinarily to give therapeutic blood levels for from 4 to 6 hours. Penicillin in the dosage used seems to have a good effect on vaginal infections. In nonpregnant women, during the ovulation phase, considered as including days 14 +/- 2 in the ordinary menstrual cycle of about 28 days, absorption seemed to be somewhat diminished. Higher levels were found in patients who were near the end of their menstrual cycles and in two patients who were menopausal. Patients who were very near term absorbed little or no penicillin, whereas patients 10 days post partum showed excellent absorption. | Source: | PubMed, pmid17796160 doi: 10.1126/science.105.2714.13 | Services: | Forum | Review | Favorites |
