My rash is actually worse. Been stopped from incevik 3 weeks early because of it. Did yours clear up and hoe long ? Mine started at te top of my head and worked to the bottom of my feet.

My rash actually got worse after stopping Incivek as well. I ultimately had to take a two week course of Prednisone to stop the progression and get some relief. My doctor had already reduced my ribavirin to 400 mg a day right after I had the blood transfusion at week 8. I stayed at 400 for the rest of treatment. My interferon was reduced to 135 from -80 for about eight weeks as well. Then back on full dose until the end of treatment .... I'm still UND 12 weeks post treatment. Last blood test in two weeks!

Oh...and I still have some skin issues. It's like that stuff just messed up my whole skin system. Hair is finally beginning  to grow back in though.

Oh...I stopped Incivek only five days early.....not soon enough. ;-) That is some nasty stuff! But it does the trick!
