Oscar P., age 8 months, was prescribed a 10-day course of Amoxicillin (Penicillin) for a left acute otitis media. His mother returns to the clinic with him 5 days later and reports symptoms resolved, but she indicates Oscar has developed a rash over his trunk that she is concerned about. On inspection, the child is alert, happy, and playful and in no acute distress with vital signs within normal limits and no other abnormal physical findings. You see a morbilliform maculopapular rash over his trunk, which you suspect is a hypersensitivity reaction to Amoxicillin. Your management should be: Group of answer choices Complete the antibiotic therapy as he only has 2 days to go and he has mild symptom only (rash) Obtain a full metabolic work up and complete blood count Stop the Amoxicillin and note the allergy on the medical record, identifying rash as the associated finding Switch him to amoxicillin-clavulanate (Beta-lactamase Penicillin) for the remainder of the treatment to assure the acute otitis media is treated.
