Suggest Treatment For Rash And Swelling On Face And Under Chin

My Mother's ben taking bactrim. She has a very bad rash, and sweling on her face, and under her chin. She also had a severe stroke 4 months ago. I've been giving her benadryl. Is that enough, or should she be on something else? She is quite uncomfortable
