Propicillin is a narrow-spectrum beta-lactam penicillin antibiotic, structurally related to penicillin V, which was previously used to treat bacterial infections caused by susceptible Gram-positive organisms. It has been largely replaced by more modern antibiotics and is not widely approved or used in current clinical practice.
No published pharmacokinetic studies specifically reporting validated PK parameters for propicillin could be identified in the existing literature for humans. Estimates below are based on class similarity with penicillin V as propicillin is a phenoxymethylpenicillin derivative, used in oral form in the past for mild to moderate infections.
