One symptom is itching. Depends on the severity of the reaction. Breathing difficulties, rash, fever and chills. If you experience any of these symptoms consult your doctor immediately. A severe allergic reaction can kill you.

However, do not use Vicodin if you are allergic to acetaminophen (Tylenol) or hydrocodone.

Are oxytetracycline and penicillin from the same family?

No. Penicillin comes originally from the penicillium mold (mould). The tetracyclines all come from the streptomyces mold (mould). Oxytetracycline is related to streptomycin. Allergy to it probably means allergy to streptomycin, but not to penicillin. And vice-versa.


If you are allergic to penicillin should you take doxaceylin?

Doxycycline is in the tetracycline family and is unrelated to penicillin. It is most likely fine for you to take. If you develop a rash, swelling lips, tongue, wheezing or closing of your airways, get to the ER immediately. These are signs of an allergic reaction to doxycycline.
