Rash from keflex. got steroid shot 2 days ago. rash got worse and spread and lips swelled last night. started prednisone today.how long will this last?

Allergic reaction: I suggest being seen again: you may need a tapered course of oral prednisone. This appears to be a severe allergic reaction- do not ignore- you will need more medicine.
