Several kinds of rashes are associated with Prozac use. At the most serious extreme, rashes that appear reflect serious immunological disorders, such as lupus erythematosus or serum sickness, which is accompanied by fever, chills, and an abnormal white blood cell count. A few deaths have been associated with Prozac induced skin rashes.
I know a few people that have gotten rashes while taking paxil. Is this serious??

Just curious,
What are the odds that you know a few
people who got rashes on Paxil?
I know the odds of a rash on Paxil and can
can calculate the statistic in my head which
makes me curious as to your profession and
the # of acquantainces you know with the Paxil
rashes? Also what motivates your interest?
Sorry to answer a question with a question, but
I will follow up with a reply.thanks,

Prozac is about the safest antidepressant on the market with 15 years of clinical experience using it in the U.S. and the respect of most clinicians. If there were such serious and commonplace side-effects from Prozac we would know this by now.
Go in peace,
