Such a bummer because that's always the first thing they want to prescribe!

So sorry to hear that!! That blows. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-for-rash#post-1673321 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 13:47:09 +0000 looch 1673321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: sorry to hear that, but at least you know for the future.</p> <p>My son is allergic as well, and you know what, he only reacted to the second 10 day course! I had completely ruled out an allergic reaction, but there it was. The ped said that my son's case was the third case they had seen that week, so it's way more common than I had thought. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-for-rash#post-1673315 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 13:44:59 +0000 mrsjyw 1673315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: tried benadryl, didn't work and went into pedi. he's allergic to amoxicilin! even tho he's been on it before for colds/etc. :( he's on steroids and benadryl for five days now. UGH </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-for-rash#post-1673311 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 13:44:10 +0000 Adira 1673311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I might call the pediatrician to see what they think, but I'd probably use a hydrocortisone ointment on it. We use that for Xander's eczema so it's my go-to for all things rashy. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-for-rash#post-1673309 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 13:42:54 +0000 Sparkler 1673309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cortisone cream? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-for-rash#post-1672228 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 08:08:14 +0000 looch 1672228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Could be a reaction to the antibiotics, same thing happened to my son, and I thought it was weird that he only reacted at the end of the course, but the ped said that is how it manifests in some kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-for-rash#post-1672198 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 07:49:35 +0000 mrsjyw 1672198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS woke up with a rash all over his body, face, arms, legs, belly, etc.</p> <p>He doesn't have a fever, ate bfast like normal, and his demeanor is the same as well.</p> <p>He hasn't had anything new to eat (he did have shrimp last night, but he's had before with no reaction). He did just finish a 10 day round of amoxicilin.</p> <p>I think I'm going to go ahead and give him some benadryl, but wanted to see what you do when a rash pops up. Wait it out? Pedi? Benadryl? </p>
