Hello and hope you are doing well.

The rash could be Hives. They develop in response to an allergic reaction, by the release of histamine. The allergen can be medications, food, extremes of temperature, exercise and viral infections to name a few. Since you developed the outbreak after you started the medication, the most likely cause would be the medication. So, therapy lies in avoiding the allergens and anti-histamines. You will need to consult your primary care physician for further evaluation.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
