View allI've been taking amoxicillin and I've noticed I've got a rash now. I found online that penicillin-based antibiotics can have side effects like this. Should I stop taking the amoxicillin, or is it okay if I keep going but maybe take something like cetrizine to handle the allergy? I'm just really unsure about what's best to do here.
It is important to stop taking amoxicillin if you have developed a rash as it may indicate an allergic reaction. You should consult with your doctor to confirm the allergy and for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take an antihistamine like Cetirizine to help with the rash and itching.

I'm dealing with allergies that hit me whenever there's dust, strong smells, or sudden weather changes. It's been going on for a long time, and I end up sneezing up to 30 times in one go, which is exhausting. I rely on Cetrizine, Fexofenadine, or Bilastine, but every time I take these meds, I get really drowsy and have a dry mouth. Is there anything else you can suggest that doesn't come with these annoying side effects?
