Can a children's drink in mixed fruit flavor cause rashes on the body of a 47-month-old child?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My 47-month-old son has been taking a brand's drink for children in mixed fruit flavor for 20 days now. Since 10 days he got rashes all over his body. There has been no change in diet otherwise.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understand your concern.

There could be many causes of rash and many foods or drinks can be responsible for it. What is the nature of rash and areas involved and are there hives? You may try by stopping the drink for two to three days and search for its replacement. Please consult with a pediatrician as rash has been there for 10 days.

I hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards.
