Sulbenicillin (INN) is a penicillin antibiotic, notable for its combination use with dibekacin. ^[1] Penicillins, crucial in primary healthcare for potent bactericidal properties and wide distribution, include oral options for enhanced accessibility. Post-World War II, synthetic penicillins like sulbenicillin broadened efficacy, leading to new groups that diversified treatment. This evolution reflects a dynamic interplay between science and clinical needs, emphasizing enduring value in managing infectious diseases in primary care.

Structure and mechanism of action[edit]

Characterized by a distinctive beta-lactam ring, penicillins inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to cell destruction. This mechanism is effective against a broad spectrum of bacteria.^[2]
