Hi,
To answer your initial question, antibiotics themselves may lead to diarrhea and rashes. I suggest she sees a doctor if it does not subside on its own within the next few days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen,
General Surgeon
