A good answer

No. She is allergic to penicillin, and amoxicillin is a penicillin. The amoxicillin on file was Camille's, after her wisdom teeth in 2024.

Traps it covers

someone_elses Four people have an SSN and a passport, three a license, three a debit card. Prescriptions belong to Lorraine, Walt, Camille, the dog and the cat. Walt takes lisinopril today; Lorraine's lisinopril was stopped in 2019. Camille took amoxicillin; Lorraine is allergic to penicillin. Lorraine's cat is on thyroid medicine and so is Lorraine.

note_contradicts_record Her allergies are in many places and not in the same words. Penicillin and sulfa are in all of them: the 2023 note, both discharge packets, the 2023 summary, the printed list, a note and a journal entry from May 2026. Codeine, oxycodone and lisinopril are intolerances in his note and on the hospital's sheets. The May 2026 face sheet also lists latex. His 2023 note says "no latex" and a note of May 22, 2026 says the hospital's entry is wrong and that he means to have it removed; nothing shows that it was. He is right, but an answer should give penicillin and sulfa as certain and report the latex entry as disputed.
