hello thanks for the quiery..
He may have come down with allergy to the medicines antibiotics,,he should stop taking that antibiotic immediately..
he could take antihistamincs if it is because of allergy.. we are not allowed to prescribe the medicines online...
either ways ask him to hydrate well, symptoms will get better if the drug is eliminated from the body completely,,
plz consult a oral physician or an allergy specialist,,
hope it helps,,take care
