Hi. my 8month old baby has a rash all over her body and on her bummy, can it be from the antibiotics as it was described from a doctor, because she got it when i gave her that. please do assist me. i am abit clueless?

Yes: Antibiotic rash is very common in children. Take your child back to the prescribing Dr, so they can examine the rash and change your prescription. The underlying infection still needs to be treated, but you don't want an antibiotic allergy to compromise your childs health. The rash should go away within 24-48 hours once the medication is changed.
