Risperidone skin rash (and epilim and lamotragine)

Hi, I am on respiridone for hypomania. I had previously been on lamotragine and epilim. All of these drugs give me the most awful itchy rash which a good dermatologist has failed to be able to resolve and it's getting worse. Respiridone does really help with my mood and sleep but I can't cope with this rash. Have others had this type of reaction to these drugs and/or is there a common ingredient in all of these and is there another type of drug which might help which is different as I really do want to find a solution. Thanks
