Hello, Antonella! How is your son doing?

What symptoms did he have that you considered an allergic reaction?

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Have you consulted his doctor? You should have these issues checked out.
