HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The Penicillin is the gold therapy for the rheumatic heart disease, Penidura and the Longacillin are both the penicillin then you can take either one of these, if you have taken right dose and completed the course in the beginning then it is okay if you missed the dose right now, this wont make any difference, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
