Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Previously you must taking penicillin ( benzathine or procaine penicillin fortified or ppf), now pentid is penicillin G .
As you mentioned that you are alright , so, why are you taking penicillin ?
Unnecessary use of drug in very dangerous. It will develop resistant to many pathogens or bacteria .
Also toxicity to liver so avoid this drug .
Good luck.
