I would report it to your doctor. They might want to put you on a different thinner/NOAC. I started on Xarelto but switched to Eliquis when I had a few issues, but not a rash.

I had some really bad itchy skin at first but when I stopped all my other meds (with the consultants advice) and only took the Apixaban, the itching stopped and I was able to sleep again.

All the best.
