In reply to HAIR LOSS--HELP needed, posted by rockette on March 6, 2004, at 14:22:33
Oh rockette,
This same thing happened to me with Depakote, and nothing I did stopped the hair loss, except for stopping the drug. And I mean I did everything, including Zinc, Selenium, Biotin, Nioxin and other expensive shampoos, scalp massages, special creams, etc.......even adjusting dosage of Depakote. I just didn't want to give up because Depakote was the best med I had ever taken.The first thing you should do is tell your doctor, but most likely, if you don't want to lose your hair, you will need to switch meds.
Maybe, though, someone on this board has successfully been able to save their hair while staying on their med??? Anyone????
Good luck rockette!!
