Hello,

The issue of pimples spreading under the skin seems related to bacterial infection most likely. The azithromycin given in recommended pediatric doses, do not pause any major threat to life as over dose and others. However, a comprehensive metabolic work up is mandatory for this child to find out the root cause of the condition to cure at its earliest.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
