Sirena Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 We'e new at this... 6 yo DS just started Amoxicillin (250mg 2x) yesterday and just before giving him his 3rd dose. He just spiked a fever 102.6F and has chills. Seems crazy since for the last couple weeks he's only had low grade temps. Could this be a J-H reaction?
