Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Kids or adults who are allergic to penicillin may be able to take one of these antibiotics instead:

Azithromycin (Zithromax, Zmax, Z-Pak)

Cephalosporins, including cefixime (Suprax), cefuroxime (Ceftin), and cephalexin (Keflex)

Clarithromycin (Biaxin)

Clindamycin (Cleocin)

Tetracyclines (e.g. doxycycline), quinolones (e.g. ciprofloxacin), macrolides (e.g. clarithromycin), aminoglycosides (e.g. gentamicin) and glycopeptides (e.g. vancomycin) are all unrelated to penicillins and are safe to use in the penicillin allergic patient.

It is generally recommended that you avoid all drugs in the immediate penicillin family (amoxicillin, ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, dicloxacillin, nafcillin, piperacillin-tazobactam as well as certain drugs in the cephalosporin class (a closely related class to penicillins).
