My friend whose antibiotics I took went to the doctors and asked specific
for staph treatment...he had an previous encounter  and did not want to
take chances..

the label says:         APO ERYTHRO EC CP   333 MG


That is erythromycin, not a good choice for staph, swould work well for
most strep species which incindentally make up many if not most skin
infections. Completely ineffective for more exotic marine organisms.
