Paracetamol allergy
Hi doctor,
My son is 7 years 9 months old now. Earlier I used to give paracetamol (p 250) during fever but he never had any side effects but after Covid, I mean to say from his 5 th year onwards if I give paracetamol p250 or other paracetamol related syrups he is getting rashes and itching all over the body. If he is allergic to that drug then that should be from the initial days only right, why in later stage which I am very much worried about. When I give paracetamol in combination with other antibiotics then he is not getting rashes. Please help 🙏
Regards
Sirisha.
