Suggest Treatment For Itchy Rashes On The Back And Chest While On Levofloxacin

HI, I am allergic to PCN, codeine and sulfa medications. I was perscribed Levofloxacin for 7 days and on the 6th day I woke woke with a rash on my back, chect and arms plus very itchy all over. Is Lenofloxacin related to any of the drugs I mentioned above? Is this a sign I am allergic to this medication?
