My daughter is 21 months old now (19 months adjusted) and has an upper resp. infection. Her Dr. put her on an antibiotic and now she has a terrible diaper rash. I have tried ALL the different diaper cremes. And nothing is working. Anyone have any ideas?

I agree with the girls Amber and Cassie. The problem we always have is that my little one is allergic to Nystatin. We used A and D cream onher. It always works for my little one. Check with the Dr.

My son was on antibiotics while in the nicu and he also got a yeast infection. They had to give him a prescription ointment called Nystatin and that cleared it up in about 3 days

This used to happen to my daughter when she was a baby. I would call her doctor, since she is on antibiotics it could be a yeast infection and she could need prescription ointment.
