Does Triple Antibiotic Contain Pencillin Or Amoxicillin?

I am anaphylatic with penicillin/amoxicillin. Without thinking I use triple antibiotic ointment up in both nostrils for cracked and bleeding issues from cold. It contains bacitracin, neomycin and pramaxine. It was a few minutes away. I am thirty minutes from medical care. Should I expect any issues? I dont know if they are in penicillin family.
