Do I have other options if I’m allergic to a medication I need?

Your doctor or pharmacist can help you find a new treatment plan. They may be able to recommend a different medication for you to take.

Here are some examples of common medications people have allergies to and what those symptoms may look like.

You should call your doctor or 9-1-1 immediately if you are having trouble breathing, swelling of the tongue or throat, hives, itching, feeling lightheaded, or fainting. This could be a severe allergic reaction.
