Description
Chemically this is 3(2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)-5-methyl-4-isoxazolyl
penicillin; this differs from dicloxacillin only by the substitution of a fluorine for a chlorine atom (Sutherland et al., 1970). It comes as oral
capsules of 250 and 500 mg, as a suspension of 25 and 50 mg/ml, and in
an injectable formulation of 500 mg and 1 g.
