Is Skin Rash A Side Effect Of Eliquis?

Will Eliquis cause severe skin rashes...I have Afib...was taking Coumadin...had a rash with Coumadin, but with Eliquis, it is getting more severe, with no cream to help my condition. (tried everything) I take Sotalol also. Could it be a combination of the two meds. Should I see a dermatologist?
