The rash may be a result of something else that the patient is having happen at the same time. Therefore, it is good to have the dentist and/or physician evaluate what is occurring with this patient at this time.

No: Stop medication immediately and take diphenhydramine. This might be an allergic reaction to the medication. Allergy testing would be advisable to determine if the reaction is to the active ingredient itself or to some other inactive ingredient. In any case check with e prescribing doctor asap.

Not OK. Probably signifies allergic reaction. Your friend should probably never again take any form of penicillin. Dentist can prescribe a different (non-penicillin) antibiotic to reduce swelling and prevent spread of infection. The tooth, however, will require definitive dental treatment. You friend should immediately see her Dentist follow-up.
