I don't think any drugs (pharmacologically) as such, would affect your allergy.

You need to avoid medicines which have used peanut or peanut oil in it's manufacturing process.

Just as a precaution before you take or use any medicines ask your pharmacist if they would be able to get that information for you. Or you could call the company which makes/distributes the medicine, to ensure they do not use peanuts or peanut oil in the manufacturing process.
