Are medicines he same in any language?


I am allergic to Sulfa and Sulfa based medicines (it's a medicine used all the time) I am going to be traveling to Mexico and Germany soon, and will be getting a medical id tag. I used a lotion that had sulfa in it for a rash i had (unrelated) and 2 dyas later broke out in hives. We don't know what would happen should I consume sulfa and would rather not know. Does anybody know what I should put on my id tag? I would like a doctor/ nurse/some medical personell and not just run of the mill people, but thanks!

Basically, I want to know if "sulfa" is the same in english, german and spanish, and what else i need to put on this. (should I put Allergic to sulfa or just sulfa or what??? should i write what happens, but since we're not sure we probablyshouldn't do that... HELP!)

No. Different drugs go my different names in different countries. Look up the German name.

all medicines are in latin
