What should someone do if they are getting a large rash from an allergy to an antibiotic medicine?
It generally depends on the antibiotic. Certain rashes can quickly become very serious conditions and should not be taken lightly.
If you notice that after taking the medicine you have a rash, immediately call your doctor and alert them to your situation. Pharmacists are the drug experts so I also suggest calling your pharmacy and describe your symptoms - they will be able to determine if it is a true drug allergy. If it is, they can then document it in your medical chart (medical profile) so that in the future, the doctors wont be able to give you the same medicine.
Pharmacists are really there for the best interest of the patient and for drug safety, so I highly recommend talking to them while alerting your doctor to your allergy as well.

What is wrong with medicine after it is expired?
There are many things that can go wrong in a medicine, depending upon what type of medicine it is. Primarily, most medicines can degrade, which means the chemicals weaken. The drug is then less effective for the purpose it is needed. For example, if an antibiotic's chemical make-up weakens, it will not fight the infection as it should if the medication was not expired. When someone with an infection takes an expired medication, the bacteria then continue to multiply, unchecked. The person would get sicker even though taking the expired antibiotic. I would just go out and buy a new bottle or obtain a new prescription.
