2days ago my 10momth old was prescribed amoxicillin for ear infection today i noticed a rash on the sides of his face. should i be concerned?

Call Pediatrician: Pediatrician should be notified immediately. Could be from the bacteria that's responsible to the ear infection. Could be allergic response to the amoxicillin. Call pediatrician now.

Maybe,maybe not : Rashes occur often in kids and some can be related to antibiotic use. A localized rash, is less likely triggered by ingested antibiotics and more likely a local contact dermatitis. If it spreads to other areas, has a raised nature or a purplish color, it could be the antibiotic and stopping would be appropriate. If it stays in one location, monitor until you can contact the kids doc and discuss it.

No: If the rash is getting worse or is raised like hives it is a reaction to the medication and it should be stopped. If he had a fever for 3 days prior to that and now the rash it is likely a viral infection called roseola and is unrelated to the the medication.
