Hello,my name is dr.Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
Two common antibiotics, amoxicillin and ampicillin, can typically cause a red rash up to one week after taking them. The most common rash is a side effect of the medicines, not an allergic reaction.
It will pass in a couple of days.
Hope my answer was helpful.If you have any other question Ill be glad to help.

dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
