Serotonin Syndrome: Read==>http://en.Wikipedia.Org/wiki/serotonin_syndrome. A rash is not a typical symptom, but flushing may occur and this can be interpreted as a rash. I assume you are under a doctor's care for your serotonin elevation? Even if you are, if this is a new development for you, it should be best to follow up with your provider to make sure that you haven't entered a high blood pressure phase.
