Antibiotic causing diaper rash
My son was diagnosed with strep throat on Friday.
He has been on Amoxicillian since then but it's causing him to have very loose stools so now he has diaper rash so bad he can't hardly sit on his bottom.
Do most antibiotics cause this? Is there something we cause use to help him?

Thanks
Kristy

Re: Antibiotic causing diaper rash
Will he eat yogurt?? Sometimes that helps a little bit! I don't know.. I am sure other people will help more than that!!! Hope he is feeling better soon!!

Re: Antibiotic causing diaper rash
Sometimes yeast infection can be mistaken as diaper rash. You might want to get that ruled out from a pedi. Antibiotics often cause yeast infection.

Re: Antibiotic causing diaper rash
Hana is right. I would get it checked- however my little ones *always* get raging diarrhoea with amoxycillin

Re: Antibiotic causing diaper rash
hi, any antibiotic can do this. You should let the doctor know right away and have it changed.
