It might be good to have an Epi-Pen on hand just in case the Benadryl doesn't work good enough if it happens again.

Hello there,

Is your doctor aware that your son has reacted to penicillin ? Perhaps your doctor could give you some suggestions as to what soap your son can safely use. Penicillin allergies are serious. If you haven't been to see your doctor about this, make an appointment immediately.   Eve
