A member asked:
What to do if i have a history of allergic reactions to erythromycin. will i probably also have a reaction to ancef (cefazolin)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. : They are both antibiotics but not of the same " family". If you have trouble with the Ancef (cefazolin) then you have a second allergy.
