Many options: There are several dozen different antibiotics in common use. If you are allergic to sulfa, then avoid it at all cost. The antibiotic you need of the many available depends upon what is being treated. Do you need this for pneumonia, GI infection, bladder infection, skin infection or other issues. Check with you regular doctor to see what is the best option for your infection.
