Allergic to penicllin = danger for mushtrippin?

A friend of mine is keen to try mushrooms but is allergic to penicillin. All I know is that penicclin is a mould which is kinda sorta in a way similar to fungi which psilly mushrooms of course are. I very much doubt this would be a problem, as he's not allergic to regular mushrooms, or the yoghurt with the good bacteria in it, or cheese which has moulds in it (blue cheese) im thinking he should be fine yeah?
anyone know for sure???

Penicillin is not in psychedelic mushrooms. Just because penicillin is produced by a type of fungus doesn't mean that psychedelic mushrooms grow penicillin because they are a fungus. Your friend will be completely fine (as long as he doesn't consume any old fruits or bread with penicillin on them).

Good question... I'd suggest doing some hard-core bio research in scholarly articles from google. Find out specific types of fungus that cause allergic reactions and why they do. I wouldn't think that there'd be a problem, but since I don't know for fact, don't base your decision on opinions, only your own research. If you can extract the psilocybin/psilocin, there wouldn't be a problem.

My gf is allergic, she had no problems. I didn't even consider if it would be an issue, does he eat normal mushrooms? If he's not allergic to those then there is absolutely no reason a penicillin allergy would cause a reaction to mushies.

Let me ask the question, why would you have an allergic reaction to something that you are not allergic to?

Doesn't penicillin mold grow on substrate though? And if so, could it not be present on a mushrrom growing side by side with it? Just a theory.

Penicillium molds are green and people usually dont like green stuff on their grows.

what you have to worry about maybe is cactus cause alot of cactus contains antibiotics . are you allergic to any other antibiotics and if so you should check the chem structure of them with those of cactus if you ever have any thought of trying cactus
