My daughter had a rash like that due to amoxicillin. It ended up she was allergic to it.

Unfortunately, it could be anything, including the amoxicillin. Though usually a reaction will show up sooner than going through 7-10 days of an antibiotic.
Make sure she hasn't come into contact with anything new, or tried any new foods, as well.
And if the doctor prescribes amoxicillin again, watch your daughter closely. Allergic reactions to things like antibiotics and bee stings get worse as you keep introducing it. So, each time they run into that allergen, the reaction will be stronger.

Amoxicillin can cause a rash itself. My oldest daughter developed a rash after finishing amoxicillin...took her to the doc and that is what it was caused from. It does sound like that is what you are describing.

Could she be allergic to the amoxicillin?? Call and speak with one of the nurses in your pediatricians office. They can help you.

Maybe an allergic rash. Some infectious diseases also are associated with skin rash. So, you really need to see the doctor.
