I Have Taken Carafate For 1 1/2 Months For Eosinophilic

I have taken Carafate for 1 1/2 months for eosinophilic esophagitis and Barrett's esophagus. I have developed two small areas of rash on abdomen that is red and itchy. I read that rash is one side effect of Carafate. Is this rash possibly one of the side effects? Should I stop medication or just treat rash with hydrocortisone?
