Does an allergic reaction to an antibiotic make you more likely to react to any other antibiotic, even one in a different family?
I have had a bad reaction to a sulfa antibiotic in the past. My doc now wants to treat me with Levaquin. I've never had a drug in this family and I'm nervous that it might be something I'll react badly to.

I believe that would be your only concern that you dont want one from the same family. And from what I hear dont use them unless absolutly needed.Let me know.
