How do you overdose on penicillin?
Assuming you're not talking about an allergic reaction, no, penicillin has a wide margin of safety and has not been associated with systemic toxicity. Though you cannot overdose on penicillin, you could end up with severe diarrhea from taking too many at once. Also, just because you have not had an allergic reaction before to a drug, taking too many could cause an allergic reaction.

What is the shot to take if you are allergic to penicillin?
Generally the recommended treatment for anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction) is epinepherine (also available in a ready-to-use syringe known as an Epi-pen) as the first step in treatment. If you carry and use an Epi-pen, the use should be followed up by a visit to the emergency room immediately for further treatment. If you are asking what alternate antibiotic you could use if you are allergic to penicillin, that will be determined for each person and in each illness by the health care professional prescribing the antibiotics. It depends on what kind of infection it is and to which alternate antibiotics the bacteria causing the infection are sensitive.
Is your son allergic to amoxicillin if he started getting red raised bumps after taking it for three days?
He might be allergic to penicillin and all derivatives of penicillin (and of the "cillins."). It's best to check with your pediatrician however. I can't take penicillin. I break out in the same red bumps. Don't worry though. Penicillin allergy is probably the most common kind. And there are plenty of other antibiotic-type medicines out there! Just remind him when he gets older that he's allergic to penicillin because he will be asked about drug allergies constantly! ~ T

If you use latex condoms- you could be allergic to latex....OR... you could be allergic to the soap you use in the shower, especially if you get soap into the opening at the end of your penis.
