About a year ago, I had a sinus infection and was given amoxicillin. A couple of days after finishing all the drug, my face broke out in a horribile pimply mess (on both sides of the face; not forehead or neck). This happened 2x with Amoxicillin. In December, I had another sinus infection and was given Levaquin and the same thing happened, and it STILL is giving me a really hard time. I have taken Amoxicillin my entire life (33 years). I went to a dermatologist who acted like I was crazy and was not helpful except that he told me it wasn't serious. I asked my Gyn. about it and he said he wasn't sure of the cause, but it was not anything I should worry about. But I am. Can anyone help? Please?

I am sorry I can't help, but I took Levaquin one time for a sinus infection, and it made me break out like crazy too.
Hope you find a solution!
