My son is 13 years old and just finished an antibiotic. The ten day prescription ran out last night. When he woke up this morning he has a rash on his arms, neck, chest, and back. It was not noticeable so I told him to watch it and call me if it gets any worse. An hour later he calls me and it is all over his body and you can see it very clear. His doctor says it is a reaction from the antibiotic. Give him some benadryl and he should be fine. Is this possible?
