Dear Friend,
Scabies is easily and effectively treatable.
Since you continue to have the same rash after the treatment, probably its something else.
We need to know , when did you consume flexeril , i mean did your rash appeared after its consumption. And are you still on it.
It seems you consumed it on 9th sep, so its not a possible effect of Flexeril , as it would have been cleared by now , as its almost 2.5 months, unless you are still taking it.
I advise you to take opinion of a doctor, or you may send us a photograph of your rash, we may be able to help you.

Stay Healthy
