My child is experiencing rashes all over the body, which sometimes appear in one area and disappear from another. He also has fever, sleepiness, and nausea. He has been taking Atarax 6 ml and Rantac 3.5 ml for the past day, but he feels very weak and even fell down while complaining of nausea. I got a CBC done, and his platelet count is normal.
