Hello,

Sometimes side effects of Augmentin may produces rashes. Allergic reactions to anesthesia has been seen though rare. It may range from mild rashes in the body to serious life threatening conditions. The rashes should go away on their own but if it is not so you should report to your treating doctor. You may need antihistamines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
