A member asked:
If i was taking amoxicillin for a week then broke out in a rash because i had mono, how long after i stop taking the anitbiotic will the rash go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A week or more: I've seen cases where the rash faded in about a week & some that were faintly visible for a bit longer. As long as any residual Amoxicillin is still being absorbed in the GI tract it can stimulate rash production after you stop the med.That is usually finished in a day or so after stopping.
