Antibiotics & Eczema: "antibiotics linked to eczema risk in children, " the daily telegraph reports, saying that giving babies the drugs increases their chance of developing the condition by 40%. However, concerned parents should not be put off allowing their children antibiotics on the strength of this news. The research it is based on cannot prove that antibiotics directly cause eczema.
