What Causes Itching And Rash On Body After Taking Lemectial?

Hello
my daughter was on lemectial for Bi Polar disorder, she broke out into a severe rash all over her body, the doctor told her to stay off the Limenicatal ?? for two weeks because it is a serious side effect, well, it has been over 2 weeks and she still itches, not as bad, but she still has the discomfort of itching, it looks like tiny bumps all over her body,
but being off her med. is causing terrible mood disorder, he put her on seriquil but she's drowsy all the time.

it's important to understand when the itching and the rash is started. there are many advers drug reaction, some of them not completely understood.
if the reaction started after 2-8 the first time she take the pills, may be useful doing some exam (complete blood count, gamma-gt, GOT & GPT ecc)
