My 8yr old daughter who has had a raised patches of red itchy rash all over her body,she also get recurrent skin infection in the form of boils on her un effected skin. Her Doctor has suggested that we try Dapsone as she has lived on antibiotic for the last 4yrs.Can anyone tell me how well Dapsone is tolerated in children and if she should be having regular blood test,as the doctor did not say that she would need them.
