Penicillin is an antibiotic that helps the body fight bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, preventing them from forming cell walls, which ultimately leads to their destruction. This makes penicillin effective against various infections, such as strep throat, pneumonia, and certain skin infections. However, it is not effective against viral infections, such as the flu or common cold.
