My 1.5 yrs old son had some throat infection and high fever. Doctor prescribed him an antibiotic cefpodoxime . we gave him 3 doses, 2.5ml each. by the end of third dose, he recovered but had flushed skin. red small patches all over his body, changing with time. we have stopped antibiotic as we believe it was the cause. what else shall we do? how to treat his skin-flushing?
Hi....it may be Chat Doctor.  You did the right thing in stopping the antibiotic. I suggest you take him to the nearest emergency room immediately. Regards -
