A member asked:
Can someone allergic to penicillin antibiotics eat brie and blue cheeses?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good question: Penicillin nowadays is synthetically made. Foods like Brie and blue cheese utilize bacteria to make them what they are. If you are concerned see an allergist for further blood testing of allergies by lab tests of your blood.
