A member asked:
17 yr old daughter has mono and morbilliform rash. amoxicillin ceased wed. prednisone and benadbut spreading body rash & severe itch. no fever. help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rash : Using amoxicillin with mono frequently causes an itchy uncomfortable rash. It lasts a while. The prednisone may not be the answer. I would use Zyrtec (cetirizine) and add Benedryl both if needed. Drink lots of fluids and rest. Bathe too. Mono can last 2-3,weeks and it is miserable. It is a lesson learned about over using antibiotics. Sorry you were the one to experience this. It will get better.
