My partner bashed me in the head and started the onset of complex partial seisures. I have tried Tegretol, Epelim & Topamax but all cause hair loss. I have stopped taking all medications for now and would like to find a drug that stops hair loss. My hair has started to grow back after stopping all drugs 8 months ago. ## If it has finally started growing back, then it may just be best to let it do it naturally, without medication interference. However, one that is used to increase hair growth is Spironolactone, it is used to treat many medical conditions, such as high blood pressure, as a diuretic, to replace potassium and etc. Hair growth is one of its side effects. You can learn more about it here: I've been taking the lowest dose available, for my blood pressure and low potass...

In my blood Luteinizing Hormone got increased upto 21%By which am getting unwanted hair on my chin area, weight is increasing,even menopause got disturbed I tried many treatments but no use. so please if there is any solution in nutrilite pls suggest me. ## Nutrilite is a nutritional supplement, so it's going to help if your problem has been caused by a deficiency in one of the vital nutrients it contains. What all have they had you try for it? What else has your doctor suggested? There are some medications and hormonal supplements that may help, but they are kind of 50-50 at their effectiveness and many of them carry the risk of making the problem worse.

That is a listed side effect of this medication, according to user reports noted by the FDA. It may also cause headache, increased risk of bleeding, nausea, and easy bruising.

Can you tell me if extreme hair loss occur from Eliquis? I have been on it since last November for an AFib attack. The hair loss is extreme and I already have areas that are bald with other areas thinning quickly. My hair dresser is alarmed at the speed this is happening. I also am having trouble w/my legs, as in weakness and stiffness. I know that that is a symptom. ## Hair loss is not a known side effect of Eliquis. Ref: Hair Loss Monitoring Study The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, headache, easy bruising, increased risk of bleeding, as well as the weakness, and stiffness that you mentioned. Were you ever given a different blood thinner, such as Heparin, or Warfarin? They can cause hair loss. Have you ever had Covid 19? Hair loss is also a symptom of ...

My age is 22 years and I have been experiencing hair loss since two years but was ignoring it. I thought it was some transient thing and would go away with time. Recently I visited a Dermatologist as the hair loss/thinning and she has prescribed me tugain 10% along with androanagen and follihair tablets. She has also asked me to get blood tests done. I had B12 deficiency for which she has given me nurokind plus plus (syringe once in a week for 4 weeks). I have been using this prescription from past 3 weeks and my hairfall didn't stop rather It has increased considerably. Should I stop using this medication or Is it common to have hair fall in the beginning stage of this course?. I am also using triatop shampoo along with these. ## Hey, i am experiencing my hair loss since i changed ...

I'm 20 years old. My hair is thin and silky. I cannot find the exact problem and am wondering if I can use vitamine E capsules such as Evion 400 in my hair? ## Dear, evion 400 is not a solution. Please find the Brand Vitosara tab of win-healthcare pvt ltd, that could help a lot.... ## I am 25 years of age. Can i use evion 400 for hair loss and skin complexion? Are there any side effects like increasing weight after using evion 400? ## Hi amu, Evion 400 can be used to help clear skin pigmentation, improve skin texture, and increase hair density. From what I could gather, Evion only contains smaller amounts Vitamin E, Essential Fatty acids, and wheat germ oil; so to answer your question about weight gain, there really isn't enough fat in here to promote weight gain, unless of coar...

I will be starting my monthly injections this week. Did my 5 weeks than waited the month. The last week and a half I have been cleaning my brush out daily (full of hair). My scalp plaques are all but gone just like a light dandruff so I'm thinking that it's more likely to be from the Cosentyx rather than clogged hair follicles. Has anyone else had this happen? Otherwise my skin has been clearing amazingly ## Yes, it has been known to cause hair loss, in some people that take it, in aftermarket reports, according to the FDA. You are definitely not the first person to notice such an issue while taking it. Other side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, infections, and an increase in the outbreaks of cold sores.

I have been taking diltiazem for at least 10yrs to control migraine headaches. I am 62 and am noticing thinning hair. Seems to have happened overnight. Has anyone experienced this and if so did you have regrowth after stopping the medicine ## Hello, Fran! How are you? The FDA does list hair loss as being among the possible side effects of this medication, along with nausea, dizziness, headache and increased urination. And yes, it usually does reverse itself, once you stop taking it. However, please do not stop it abruptly, unless your doctor tells you to do so, a sudden cessation creates the risk of dangerously elevated blood pressure and heart rate. Is there anything else I can help with? ## You have been very helpful,thanks. I weaned off medicine slowly. Hopefully I will see improveme...

Have been on 50 mg Flecainide twice daily and 125 mcg Digoxin once daily for one year due to sporadic episodes of tachycardia and one incident of Afib that landed me in the hospital. My rhythm adjusted itself after 12 hours. I noticed an increase in hair loss a month or two after I started taking it. I thought it was due to stress levels several months previously because I had experienced hair loss in the past due to stress. That subsided and the hair would grow back but not entirely. However, it has been continually falling out an alarmingly steady pace since. I have seen my dermatologist who said everything seemed normal and to try rogaine. I just had bloodwork for several issues to see if this mystery can be solved and have not gotten the results. It dawned on me that the time frame ...

My beautician said lisinopril definitely causes hair loss. She recommended taking Biotin 5000 mg to help. ## Hello, Lynn! How are you?

I have been taking clopidogrel 75 for circulation for nearly four years now and my hair is so thin It won’t cover my scalp properly, the loss has speeded up in the last six months and I would like to know if you think it will stop before I loose it all (which won’t be long) or is there anything else you can suggest, thank you. ## That is not a common side effect, as listed by the FDA. They are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, increased risk of bleeding, and easy bruising. There is really no way to be sure how any given medication will affect anyone that takes it, though. Are you on any other medications? How old are you? Have you consulted your doctor? There are other medications in this class that you can try.

can this increases scalp itching. I am using these capsules due to my hair loss. ## How does astymin forte and autrin helpful for hair loss ## Astymin M Forte is a nutritional supplement, so it may help with hair loss, if a deficiency in one of the vital nutrients it contains has caused the hair loss. The NIH does warn that it may cause nausea, in some people that take it, as a side effect, due to its potency. Autrin is used for the treatment of certain anemias, Priya, so it should not be taken without a doctor's approval.

Hello, I've been on ramipril for approx 18 years. First 5 mg, then 10 mg; 5 in the a.m. & 5 in the p.m. (When they switched me to generic, 5 mg once a day was just not enough.) For the past few years, I've had a tickling cough at night, so I usually take a cough drop at bedtime so it doesn't wake me up as I doze off to sleep. Do you think this is caused by the Ramipril? Also, can ramipril cause hair loss? ## Are you on any other medications? As to your questions, yes the U.S. FDA warns that it has been known to cause both issues as side effects, in some people that take it. You may also experience dizziness, headache, increased urination, and orthostatic hypotension. Have you informed your doctor? You may need to try a different medication.
