Some drugs are more likely to cause rashes in children than others.
A review of nearly 6,000 patient charts in a large pediatric practice indicates that more rashes were attributed to the oral antibiotic Ceclor than with any of the other antibiotics. One should seek alternatives to these drugs if at all possible. If one's child is place on antibiotics, it will be very important to make sure that good bacteria, like bifidus and acidophilus are used to prevent any overgrowth of harmful bacteria and yeast.
