Hi! Yes, I have broken out in a rash. I am 12 days off my Lexapro and so far not having Hugh withdrawal symptoms. I have an occasional dizzy spell or brain zap, but nothing too overwhelming. Last night I noticed I had a rash all over my torso. It's a little itchy and sore. I've applied some hydrocordisone cream and it seems to help a little. How long does it last, do you know?

Can Lexapro cause skin rashes?

I believe it can be. I typed "Lexapro Rash" into google, and found many, many people claiming to have gotten a rash from the drug. I myself took lexapro for 3 days, and suddenly developed a rash that's covered ~3/4 of my upper body. However, to argue the Lexapro side of the story, in their FDA expieriment, their were no cases of rashes in any of their subjects. Either way, I believe that it can cause rashes, and that it's merely left to chance as to whether the person will develop a rash.

What can you put to your baby's bottom to prevent diaper rash?

Nothing, you must keep it clean. There is no substance that will prevent diaper rash. Keeping the baby's bottom clean is ESSENTIAL!Add - While keeping a baby clean and dryis the best course of action, some children (like my daughter) have extremely sensitive skin aka she'd break out in a rash if I touched her skin.My pediatrician gave me Triamcinalone for when the breakouts were bad and advised a layer of Bagbalm on her but at changings.Bagbalm can be found at Walmart in the pharmacy section.
