Morbilliform drug eruption is a measles-like rash that develops as a reaction to taking a drug. Any drug can trigger it, but the most common causes are antibiotics. The rash generally goes away after you stop taking the drug, although it may last 1-2 weeks. The rash could be itchy and be accompanied by a low-grade fever.
