A member asked:
My son was prescribed methylpredisolone & amoxicillin, broke out in rash after completing 6 days of methylpredisolone. which one caused the reaction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No way to tell: Since they were given close together no way to tell for sure but likely if it was the medication the more likely is the amoxicillin.However it may be neither but the illness itself could have caused the rash.
