hi, thanks for the question. rash may be due to the medications or it can be a viral fever with rash. if am your treating doctor i would examine your child again and see if your child really needs gudcef and mefenamic acid and if not i will ask you to stop those two medications and prescribe an caladryl lotion for local application.
