How Long Will Erythema Multiforme S Residual Side Effects And Symptoms Last?

My daughter was just diagnosed with Erythemia Multiforma. They said it was a reaction to the amoxicillin they gave her for a sinus infection. They have now put her on a steroid. How long will the symptoms last. Are there any residual effects or other things to be concerned about.
