Hello, Work horse! How are you?

No, the FDA classifies this medication as an antibiotic, it is only effective at treating or preventing bacterial infections. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

To treat allergies, you usually need some type of antihistamine. If you've not taken any before, your doctor should be able to help you find one that's safe for you.

Is there anything else I can help with?
