A member asked:
Hi doctor,is there any test to find out which antibiotic is allergic to a person before using it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergy: It is the person who is allergic, not the antibiotic. There is testing available to see whether you might be allergic to a specific agent, but difficult to cover all groups of antibiotics.
