Ds's eczema was ok, then he had a swab and it turned out it was infected. So they put him on erythromycin, and immediately his eczema got worse. Over the week his eczema worsened, so we were told to stop the antibiotics. As soon as we stopped them, his eczema cleared up.

Has this happened to anyone else?
Any ideas WHY he might react to the antibiotics?

Both a friends DS (8) and my DS (7) get thrush when on these anti b's. Not sure why it happens but its a vicious circle.
Sorry I could not be of more help.
