Antibiotics can cause allergic reactions or skin rashes. Rashes can have many different causes. See a doctor.

Do they itch?

I had low-level posion ivy all over my body after my dogs tracked it into my house. I had never had it before, and it appeared as 1-2 inch red streaks all over my body that would only blister and thicken if I scratched. Very itchy though! I didn't know what it was for days because I didn't think it could be posion ivy as I hadn't had any direct possible contact with plantlife in weeks!

It could be tinea versicolor... try putting Lamisil on them for 2 weeks and then wait a week after you're done to see if it goes away.

when I had allergies to antibiotics I broke out in a painless rash. I would suspect that may be the culpret. Hives would itch so I doubt it's that.
