~Christina, was the rash like really bad dry skin but kind of leathery and scaly? I am so glad to know that this is a real thing and once my real doctor is working again I'll ask about it . I am so confused why I'm getting this now; I've been on Clozaril for almost 4 years and the drooling started IP when I was titrating up. I am having a hard time not picking at it and I'm sure that's a bad, bad idea.

Thanks for giving me some hope. GI first, gross rash 2nd.
