The allergic red blotchy rash from Cipro (ciprofloxacin) and not from Levofloxacin can be attributed to differences in their chemical structures and how individual bodies react to them. Cipro may contain specific components or metabolites that trigger an immune response in certain individuals, leading to an allergic reaction. In contrast, Levofloxacin might not contain these triggers, or the immune system may not recognize it as a threat, resulting in no allergic response. Each person's immune system is unique, which can lead to varying reactions to different medications.

I am not sure if Cipro has penicillin in it or not, but I have been allergic to penicillin since I was little and then a few years ago found that I had the same reaction (hives) after taking Cipro...so I don't know, but that's my experience.

no, zithromax contains azithromycin, which is a macrolid (not a penicillin).
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.
