Amoxicillin Side Effect #8: Rashes or Swelling

Rashes and swelling are often symptomatic of illnesses and they can help medical professionals come to a correct diagnosis. Sometimes, though, they can also be caused by medication that is being used to treat an illness. Amoxicillin is one type of medication that can lead to rashes and swellings in the body.

If you are experiencing these symptoms then it can be a sign of a potentially serious reaction to amoxicillin. You should speak with a medical professional straight away and consider taking the patient to an emergency room. You should avoid the use of amoxicillin or other medications if you have had a history of such reaction in the past.
