Signs and Symptoms
Drug rashes can appear as various types of skin rashes, including pink-to-red bumps, hives, blisters, red patches, pus-filled bumps (pustules), or as sensitivity to sunlight. Drug rashes may involve the entire skin surface, or they may be limited to one or a few body parts.

Itching is common in many drug rashes. However, if your child has a fever, if his or her skin is tender, or if the inside the mouth or the genitalia are involved, a more serious skin condition may be present.
