Hi,
A sudden onset itchy rash that developed with in 24 hours of starting the drug might suggest sensitivity reaction to the drug, especially to Gabapentin. Kindly review with your doctor, as we have to examine the rash. Withhold the drug till then. For temporary relief, take an anti-histamine like Levocetirizine and apply an emollient.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
