Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction to Duloxetine.
If the rash continue I suggest to consult your doctor about an alternative medication.
Meanwhile,I suggest using a steroid cream for local application at the rash area such as Betametasone cream.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
