Question
Patient: 10 years old, with a high fever, allergic to ceftriaxone sodium, experiencing rashes and itching all over the body. The doctor says not to use penicillin medicine. I’m wondering how amoxicillin and ibuprofen, both fever-reducing and anti-inflammatory drugs, can have penicillin medicine properties? Previous treatment and effects: After experiencing allergic symptoms again, I took antihistamines. What kind of help do I need? Asking how amoxicillin and ibuprofen, both fever-reducing and anti-inflammatory drugs, can have penicillin medicine properties? Additional question: Can I eat fruit and congee if I’m allergic to ceftriaxone sodium, and how long will it take to recover to normal eating habits?
Answer
Amoxicillin contains penicillin medicine properties, while ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Ibuprofen primarily has a fever-reducing effect. If you are allergic to ceftriaxone sodium, it is recommended that you do not use amoxicillin. You can eat fruit and congee.
