Face rash and Zytiga.

I have been taking Zytiga for approximately 10 months. In the last several months I have developed a non irritating rash on my face cheeks and my chin. Sound familiar anyone? Thanks group.

Thanks, however I could find the the information in the link you provided. Sure it was the COU-AA-30 clinical trial? I found Cou-AA- 301 and Cou -AA 302.

Hello Nonamelame (interesting handle), I developed a rash on upper chest above the right nipple when I started abiraterone. To treat I took Claritin (antihistamine) and applied a topical steroidal cream). The rash subsided enough to stop the topical cream and I take the antihistamine every other day or second day. Cheers, Phil
