Question

At the age of four, I contracted pneumonia and was given the first bottle of Azithromycin at the children’s hospital. The third bottle was Yuxingcao. Halfway through the infusion, the child’s body broke out in red spots and bumps, and it was very itchy. Hello, what kind of drug allergy could this be? In the summer, I extinguished the mosquito coil indoors…

Answer

It was Azithromycin; the third bottle was Yuxingcao. Halfway through the infusion, the child’s body broke out in red spots and bumps, and it was very itchy. Hello, which drug allergy could this be? If this is an allergic reaction, it is likely to be an allergy to Yuxingcao, as Yuxingcao is a traditional Chinese medicine preparation with a high rate of allergies. Currently, Yuxingcao is generally used for intramuscular injection and should not be used for intravenous infusion. This is the suggestion for the question ‘Could there be a skin allergic reaction after injecting Yuxingcao syringe?’ I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
