What Causes Hives All Over The Body Whenever Having Amoxicillin Antibiotic For Ear Infection?
My granddaughter was being treated for an ear infection with amoxicillin. On the 6th day on the medication, she developed hives all over her body. Her mother took her to the doctor, and he took her off the medicine. However, he said that it's unlikely that it was the meds, but thinks it was something she ate instead. How can one tell what caused hives her to get hives whenever she has been on this medication previously without reaction.
