I had the same question. This is what I have found so far http://www.parkhurstexchange.com/node/116?zid=49
They make sulfuric acid, sulfur dioxide, snake repellent, sulfa drugs...
No.
no
Bacitracin does have a sulfur molecule in its structure. If you are asking if bacitracin is a sulfa drug, then no, it is not a sulfa drug and can be used in patients with sulfa allergies for burns when silver sulfadiazene cannot be used.
No
no
yes you can
No
Sulfinyl is a component of Prilosec. I have a sulfa allergy and unwittingly took a Prilosec. I had swelling in the mouth, lips, larnyx and bottom. So, I'd say sulfinyl can cause an allergic reaction in a person with a sulfa drug allergy. There was nothing else to explain it.
V14.2
it contains a sulfa atom, but it is not a sulfonamide, in other words, no, it will not have sulfonamide cross reaction. no allergy.
medically, im not sure, but for myself having a sulfa allergy i have found that neosporin, or the ingredients therein, do make me break out in an itchy type rash.
If one has sulfa allergy there is a few medication they should avoid. They should avoid antibiotics containing sulfonamides, and other medications that use sulfasalazine.
yes it is safe
I am, when I was little I found out I was allergic to sulfa drugs then my egg allergy developed later.
Most dried apricots are treated with sulfur as part of the drying process, so this may be the connection.
For anyone who is has a sulfa allergy, it is important to know which prescription or non-prescription medications are sulfa-based. If you are suffering from any type of bacterial infection, be sure to tell your doctor about your allergy. The reason is that one of the popular options, the Zithromax z-pak, is sulfa-based and may cause a severe allergic reaction.
