I had Celluitis a month ago on my neck, was prescribed two lots of 28 x 500mg Flucloxacillin(realy don't want them ever again, awful reactions, very low mood, stomach cramps, wiped me out, etc) It has come back again on neck and is growing exponentially. I am awaiting call from GP, very worried, but also dont want above A/B again, tx

You might not have the same reaction to one of the other "cillins", so I wouldn't worry - just chat to your doctor, or pharmacist.

Ask for a different penicillin as flucloxacillin doesn’t always work these days for cellulitis. There are plenty of others out there that will. Don’t worry
