Medicines That May Cause Rashes in Children

Overview

Many prescription and nonprescription medicines can cause a rash. A few common examples are:

  • Antibiotics.
  • Aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), and naproxen (Aleve).
  • Pain medicines, such as codeine.
  • Seizure medicines.

If a rash occurs after your child has begun a new medicine:

  • Stop giving the medicine to your child.
  • Call the doctor who prescribed or recommended the medicine to determine if another medicine needs to be prescribed.
