You show symptoms; call your doctor.
Yes
If you are allergic to penicillin, you may also be allergic to other "cillins", such as amoxicillin, and others.
I am allergic to penicillin and amoxicillin can I use Vigamox eye drops
I would talk with your doctor, but my Grandma could not!No, amoxicillin is an antibiotic in the penicillin category. You'll have the same "allergic" effect than if you were taking penicillin V, as an example.
Yes. Clindamycin is not a penicillin-like antibiotic, so it may be used if allergic to penicillin. However, this does not mean you cannot be allergic to this drug also.
That is a very good question again asked by the expert on this subject. In the first place you do not know the exact mechanism by which penicillin allergy occurs. It may be due to traces of bacterial proteins remaining in the preparation or may be mediated through hapten mechanism or either of them or very rarely both of them may be responsible for the allergic reaction of penicillin. When you prepare the amoxicillin from penicillin, the protein/proteins responsible for allergic reaction may be destroyed and you do not get the allergic reactions of amoxicillin so commonly. Nevertheless severe anaphylactic reacions with injectable ampicillin has been obsevered by the cotntributor, although very rarely as compared to penicillin. And injectable ampicillin should be better avoided in patients allergic to penicillin.
No, you cannot take it. Amoxicillin is a semi-synthetic PCN(penicillin) and share the same structure thus will cause an allergic reaction.
Amoxicillin can be taken by one and all, including pregnant women and newborn also. Provided the patient is not allergic to it or not suffering from infectious mononucleosis.
if allergic to erythromycin can you take amoxicillin
The current recommendation is still penicillin (or amoxicillin) and azithromycin is penicillin allergic.
An allergic reaction can be hives or even a severe reaction such as anaphylactic shock. If you have any concerns regarding the medication you are on or the symptoms you may be having call your doctor immediatly. Severe allergic reactions can cause death.
I think so but I know there's 875 mg amoxicillin pills.
