I agree with Zane you need to discuss this with Surgeon who will perform the Tonsillectomy. Make sure the doctor is aware of any and all alergies you child may have including alergies to medication prior to surgery.
There are a variety of medications the doctors can choose from to use as an antibiotic during surgery. The most common and usually the best tolerated medications are probably the "cillins". That does not mean they are the only medication the doctor can choose.

This is something that should be discussed with a doctor, They will tell you whether it would be safe for your child or not.
