What is the shot to take if you are allergic to penicillin?

Answer 1

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.
