Wanted to ask i can not take no sulfa drugs or many antibiotics due to my throat closing . where can a patient go to have medicine testing?

Allergy testing: Antibiotics can cause many different types of allergic reactions. This could be an allergic reaction to the sulfa or other ingredients. Many dermatologists perform allergy testing. Check with your primary doctor and they can arrange for you to get allergy testing if needed.
