it depends what your sick with, if you have strep throat, you could take zithromax, but ask your doctor

depends on what kind of infection you have.Some work better for respiratory,urinary or skin infections.You should never use antibiotics unless you really need them.That is why we have some infections that are anti biotic resistant

Just make your doctor aware that you have a penicillin allergy and they will prescribe an alternative, depending on what is wrong with you.

Penicillin is generally prescribed for throat infections, chest infections, or ear infections. In these cases, erythromycin is a suitable alternative.

You need to see a doctor. A doctor will know which one to prescribe you. A lot of people have allergies to different medication. Do not go to Mexico and give yourself a dose. Sorry i am a nurse and people ask a lot. You can take Augmentin for pneumonia.
Sulfa.
A lot of meds are out there
Doxcycline. A lot of antibotics for you.

wait.dont take any of the types mentioned above,they are all derivatives of peniciline.they will give you the same allergy which could be fatal.please please never take any advice regarding such serious cases from nonproficinals.the other option you have is salfa derivatives,but again,you may have allergy against it.you must consult your dr and perform anti-biotics allergy test.
