Zith causing a rash


Recommended Posts

The new zith from Teva seems to be working, but I upped the dosage just a bit to 1.5 tspn per day with great results except now dd7 has a rash. Large flat red spots. They diminished when I went back to 1 tspn a day, but the behavior is much less managable.

 

She had been on cefdinir before with fair results. I have heard that some parent do both antibiotics although my local ped who treats PANDAS would be really hestitant to do this.

 

I welcome your knowledge, insight, and experience. Thanks.

Could it be that the zith is pushing out some sort of bacteria? The body has several ways of ridding itself of toxins, and one way is through the skin. We went through that with DS, it passed after a few months. Does the rash itch? Is it bothersome? If not, I would continue on with the dosage. Have you asked your child's doctor?
