To get the same coverage your doctor will usually use either a cephalosporin type antiobiotic (such as ceftriaxone) or vancomycin.

There are many other types of non-penicillin antibiotics. Just make sure your doctor knows you are allergic to penicillin as well as anyone like a significant other/parents.
