Hi@Dean
Thanks for your enquiry. We'd not be able to confirm if your rash is connected with your medication. Do contact your rheumatology nurse specialist.
If you are unsure, you might discuss your concerns with a pharmacist or 111 and they can help you decide on next steps perhaps.
If you'd like any further information about your arthritis, do come back to us or ring 0800 5200 520.
all the best
