It should be safe for you to take Avelox (moxifloxacin) if you are allergic to penicillin.

Avelox is an antibiotic in the class of drugs called fluoroquinolones. It fights bacteria in the body. It kills sensitive bacteria by stopping the production of essential proteins needed by the bacteria to survive.

Avelox is used to treat bacterial infections caused by certain bacteria.
