You should inform your med team of any side effects especially as you are on a trial!

Skin rashes are common with rituximab but because you are also taking ibrutinib don't delay in informing them!

Best wishes

I was on ibrutinib for 5 weeks then started a very small rash that progressed rapidly. If you are starting a rash as a possible side effect of your treatment you should report it to the oncologist immediately as he/she may be able to medicate and reduce the symptoms. Good luck!
