Who's At Risk
Drug rashes can occur in infants. This is especially true if they:
  • Have a weakened immune system due to illness or medication.
  • Currently have an infection.
  • Are taking different medications at one time.
An infant will not necessarily have the same reaction to a drug that a parent has had.
