You can take Flucofast (fluconazole) if you are allergic to penicillin, because fluconazole is not structurally related to penicillin antibiotics or other beta-lactams. Penicillin causes allergic reactions precisely because of its beta-lactam structure.
Flucofast is an antifungal drug belonging to the triazole group - it is not an antibiotic. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit the synthesis of ergosterol (a component of the fungal cell membrane): https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/30542/flucofast-kapsulki/ulotka
