OK if needed: Antibiotic resistance of course is a concern when you use these drugs multiple times. Take yogurt or a probiotic during and after a course of antibiotics. Depending on what you're allergic to- amoxicillin, augmentin, doxycycline, Bactrim and Ceftin (cefuroxime) are antibiotics to consider in the future. Most importantly, see if you can find a triggering, underlying problem such as allergy.
