But does it treat syphilis?

I'd like to thank a pharmacist, who I suspect wishes to remain anonymous, for sending in this allergy note that a patient handed her.

    In fairness to pharmacists, it was likely a technician or intern that wrote that note. I know it's something I always delegate.

    I'm allergic to it, and always have a hard time spelling it even though i have looked up the word several times.It doesn't help that most of the time, I'm in pain or with a killer headache for waking too early in the morning to my appointment before classes and missed my morning coffee .

    penicilline...
    penniciline...
    penicillin...
    ...i could go on forever.

    does dejafait get that the pharmacist was laughing at the penis, er I mean mispelled word, and had nothing to do with writing it? It was handed to him by a patient. What is with these always appropriate boring pharmacy types?

    Does the patient still need birth control then?

    Truthfully, how often does a medical professional write it out? I usually see PCN.

    Sounds like a good antibiotic for the gentleman who shot his trouser snake with the pink handgun...
