HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such skin manifestation could be due to hypersensitivity of drug because you where on it, now need to be patience because this may take some to come around, with steroid better to add some antihistamine and "Diphenhydramine would be best" hope this information helps, take care.
