penicillin g and Rheumatic Heart Disease

penicillin g has been researched along with Rheumatic Heart Disease in 35 studies

Penicillin G: A penicillin derivative commonly used in the form of its sodium or potassium salts in the treatment of a variety of infections. It is effective against most gram-positive bacteria and against gram-negative cocci. It has also been used as an experimental convulsant because of its actions on GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID mediated synaptic transmission.
benzylpenicillin : A penicillin in which the substituent at position 6 of the penam ring is a phenylacetamido group.

Rheumatic Heart Disease: Cardiac manifestation of systemic rheumatological conditions, such as RHEUMATIC FEVER. Rheumatic heart disease can involve any part the heart, most often the HEART VALVES and the ENDOCARDIUM.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The current prophylactic treatment to prevent rheumatic heart disease requires four-weekly intramuscular injection of a suspension of the poorly soluble benzathine salt form of penicillin G (BPG) often for more than 10 years."3.88Lessons learned in the development of sustained release penicillin drug delivery systems for the prophylactic treatment of rheumatic heart disease (RHD). ( Boyd, BJ; Bulitta, JB; Carapetis, JR; Landersdorfer, C; Montagnat, OD; Sheel, M; Webster, GR; Wyber, R, 2018)
"Age, weight, cardiac status, and streptococcal infections among the patients and their family members studied in each program were comparable."2.66Rheumatic fever recurrences: controlled study of 3-week versus 4-week benzathine penicillin prevention programs. ( Chiou, JF; Hsieh, KH; Hsieh, RP; Lin, GJ; Lue, HC; Wu, MH, 1986)
"The incidence of acute rheumatic fever has seen a dramatic decline over the last 15 to 20 years in most developed countries and treatment of this disease has changed little since."1.32Recurrent acute rheumatic fever: a forgotten diagnosis? ( Barker, TA; Clarke, B; Denley, H; Grötte, GJ; Kadir, IS, 2004)
"Mitral insufficiency was the major functional defect in these children whose mean age was 8."1.27Rheumatic heart disease in Nigerian children: clinical and preventive aspects. ( Coker, AO; Fadahunsi, HO; Usoro, PD, 1987)
