If bacteria is resistant to penicillin can you give erythromycin?

Yes, erythromycin is very similar to penicillin, in the types of bacterial infections it can fight. Erythromycin is used in patients who are allergic to penicillin, primarily.

Typically, though, a different antibiotic is chosen, given the similarities of the two drugs.
