Bicillin shot for rheumatic fever went into fat instead of muscle. will it still be effective?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Less than optimal: The blood flow through the fat is slower and less predictable than through muscle. However, the medicine will eventually leak out into your blood over time and suppress strep activity.
