Augmentin does not contain sulfa. So, a person with an allergy to sulfa drugs should be able to take it safely. Some people have sensitivities to multiple types of medications, therefore it would be best to discuss medications with your doctor or pharmacist.

∙ 9y agoNo, you should not take it!! I was put on it by my primary physician and I was having severe reactions to it not realizing it. My gastroenterologist told me that a lot of people who have sulfa Allergies CANNOT take this medication even though the manufacturer says it is safe for people with sulfa allergies. There are several other drugs this applies to, so my suggestion is don't take it. It was causing my throat to close and difficulty breathing for me.
