A member asked:

I had a really bad reaction to penicillin when i was 6 months i'm now 13 and i had a small amount.half a centimetre of flucxocillion,can i die?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Death is not likely: Most with a deadly allergic reaction will have the reaction within 1/2 hour of the dose. You obviously have had the time to make this inquiry so I think you have not demonstrated allergy to the flucxocillin.
