    Penicillin is a medicine commonly prescribed to treat throat infections. It belongs to a family of drugs called beta lactam. It helps to stop the growth of bacteria in the respiratory tract. Some other drugs belonging to the penicillin family include amoxicillin, ampicillin and dicloxacillin. However some individuals are allergic to penicillin and taking this drug can affect them adversely.
