What Causes Skin Rash In A Child?
My 5 year old grandson has developed a rash (comes in the evening and goes away by morning) for the last 3 days. He is taking Banzel, Onfi, and Lamaital for seizures. the amount of Banzel was inceased about two weeks ago but the rash has just started the last 3 days. Do you think there is a connection?

Hi...usually Banzel doesn't have the record of causing a drug rash like this. But as he is on multiple drugs it is till possible.I suggest you get back to your neurologist regarding this. Do not stop any anti seizure medications as seizures are more dangerous than rash.
