flakey skin peel after antibiotics

Question
Our baby of 14 years developed an internal infection that his vet can not answer he says,so antibiotics was the answer. Now his skin is dry and flaking off in a sunburn form with clumps of hair pulling off also. The pills went from Cephalexin 500mg @8hrs to SMZ-TMP 960mg once a day. He has been sick since Nov 2007.
Thank You

Answer
Sorry, but if you read my profile before submitting a question, it CLEARLY states I have no medical training and to NOT submit medical questions (which you did anyways).  Sorry I tried to help with a suggestion to find a dermatologist.  I will make sure to just delete any further medical questions in the future.

I am not a vet, but it sounds like possibly your dog was having an allergic reaction to the first antibiotic (unless, he continued to have dry skin and flaking with the second one).  I would recommend finding a doggie dermatologist in your area and getting a second opinion.  Good luck.
