Hello and welcome to HCM.forum,
I would like you to know that if the rashes developed after taking amoxicillin then you should stop taking it and visit your doctor soon.
For now i will advise you to take an anti allergic which will provide you temporary relief.
Also you can apply cold compresses to relieve itching and redness.
Kindly see you doctor soon.
I hope i answered your query.
I wish you good health.
Take care.
