How do you know when you are allergic to Penicillin?

How do you know when you are allergic to Penicillin? I got my molars taken out, and was prescribed penicillin. I started throwing up every time I took the penicillin, and kept throwing up until all that came out was water. Does this mean I am allergic?

Dear artsy_fartsy, Unless you’ve had the drug and had a reaction there probably isn’t a sure way to tell. When you visit the hospital and the doctor asks if you have any allergies to medications you should tell them none that you know of (if you know of none) or tell them which ones you are allergic too because some are in the same families and then they will know what to avoid. Sue…good luck
