> > I do not believe I am reading this. I had exactly the same experience last year and was told I was wrong by my doctors and I called the drug manufacture and was also told it was not the Effexor. I lost tons of hair. I had very thick long hair. I noticed it mostly when I combed it or washed it. My doctors to this day insist it was not the drug. But I insisted they take me off of it and the hair stopped failing out! Explain that. Good luck to you. You need to explain to your doctor that you know of at least one other case of someone elses hair falling out. Lexie
It's definitely the effexor. I've been on it for over a year and my hair has thinned so bad that I now have a bald spot on top of my head. I wish I would've found this website when I first noticed my hair falling.
Thanks for your responses
