Bacterial Infections: Phenethicillin potassium is effective against various bacterial infections, including streptococcal infections (such as strep throat), staphylococcal infections (including skin and soft tissue infections), and some respiratory tract infections caused by susceptible organisms.
Strep Throat: It is commonly used to treat streptococcal pharyngitis, also known as strep throat, which is caused by group A Streptococcus bacteria. Treatment helps alleviate symptoms and prevents complications like rheumatic fever or kidney inflammation.
Skin and Soft Tissue Infections: Phenethicillin potassium can be used to treat skin infections such as impetigo, cellulitis, and erysipelas, as well as soft tissue infections caused by susceptible bacteria.
Respiratory Tract Infections: In some cases, phenethicillin potassium may be prescribed for respiratory tract infections like sinusitis and bronchitis, particularly if they are caused by susceptible bacteria.
Prophylaxis: It may also be used prophylactically to prevent bacterial infections in certain situations, such as before dental procedures in individuals with a history of rheumatic fever or before surgical procedures to prevent postoperative infections.
Side Effects: Common side effects of phenethicillin potassium include gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Allergic reactions, including skin rashes, itching, and, rarely, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, can occur. It may also cause superinfections due to overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms.
Drug Interactions: Phenethicillin potassium may interact with other medications, such as oral contraceptives, leading to decreased effectiveness of contraceptives. It is important to discuss all current medications with your healthcare provider before starting phenethicillin potassium.
Resistance: Like other antibiotics, the overuse or misuse of phenethicillin potassium can lead to the development of bacterial resistance, making future infections more difficult to treat. Therefore, it is essential to use antibiotics judiciously and only when necessary.

We extend modifiers to include items that changes the parent and child taxa. I.e. for a species, that would be the genus that is belongs to and the strains in the species.
A higher number indicates impact on more bacteria associated with the condition and confidence on the impact.
We have X bacteria high and Y low reported. We find that the modifier reduces some and increases other of these two groups. We just tally: X|reduces + Y|Increase = Positive X|increases + Y|decrease = Negative.
Benefit Ratio:
Numbers above 0 have increasing positive effect.
Numbers below 0 have increasing negative effect.
