A doctor has provided 1 answer

Are you worried about the dexamethasone, which is equivalent to 50 mgs of prednisone, or the rash? The dexamethasone can cause insomnia or stomach irritation, elevation of pulse & BP but side effects will gradually wear off in a day or so since it's a one time dose. Your MD or a dermatologist will have to advise you about your rash.
