[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 47913, member: 1991"] What antibiotic is it? I've definitely been there done that - I now wear a medallion (SOS Talisman) which has a long paper strip inside with the list of all my allergies. There are now too many to engrave on one medallion. Some allergic reactions can take several days to develop. My penicillin reaction came in three days after I'd started the course. With Erythromycin it was immediate. With Macrodantin, it took over a week. Some antibiotics are sufficiently similar to others, so that some people can get a crossover reaction. Depending on what form the potassium is in, you shouldn't be allergic to it. Don't know about the Advair, I don't know it. Get to the doctor pronto. If at all unsure, stop the antibiotics and try to get some antihistamines, but preferably let the doctor sort that one out. Whatever you take, write it down somewhere and keep a record so your doctor can sort through the list and the history. Good luck with this one. Marg [/QUOTE]
