Started taking probiotics and omega three with a centrum multivitamin with daily valtrex (valacyclovir) can any of these combinations give a rash near my upper chest and neck that's what i'm experiencing after two days?

RASH CHEST AND NECK: ANY MEDICATION, PRESCRIPTION OR OVER-THE-COUNTER, CAN CAUSE SKIN PROBLEMS. DOES IT ITCH? AS FAR AS I KNOW, ONLY THE VALTREX (valacyclovir) COULD BE THE MAIN REASON. SEE A DERMATOLOGIST TO BE SURE. BEST LUCK.
