than is accessible with phenoxymethylpenicillin. These college concentrations
construe to added antibacterial activity.

Such abstracts can be advantageous to abstain axial afraid arrangement toxicity
in any being accepting ample doses of the biologic on a abiding basis, but they
are abnormally accordant to patients with renal failure, who may accrue the
