Neither of you should take this drug.Notice how both of the spelling ends with (cillin) .
Allergies can be deadly, Why would you want to possibly KILL your daughter and yourself. Do yourself a favor and go to your doctor. ( Don't try this at home )
Antibotics should never be self admin. That is how we get SUPER BUGS like MRSA.

These medications are related, however, not all allergies cross over, some people can safely use Amoxicillin when they are allergic to Penicillin and vice/versa, however, it is a risk.

Have you spoken to your doctor or pharmacist about this? Are they aware of the allergy?
