What can doctors use if i'm allergic to penicillin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Alternatives: are available, even if there are no alternatives and penicillin is the only drug to treat a condition that you have, very rare by the way, you can still receive it by a special way (desensitization) by an allergist, good luck
