Does anyone know if taking levothroxine and Omeprazole causes hair loss and if so does hair grow back again.
I have also noticed hair loss after taking Omerprazole, but i have noticed a general thinning all over my head. I stopped taking it 5 months ago, and no signs of regrowth.
I am only 19 years old
OH No thats terrible
But i`ve read that it usually take between 6-8 months for hair to start growing, and that it can take up to a couple of years for the hair to have grown back to desired length. So there is still hope
Thank You!! as you say at least it gives us some hope , will let you know what doctor says I have an appt late afternoon tomorrow
What did the doc say?
Hi!! doctor said she thinks it is scalp fungus given me ketopine shampoo , I told her i have been doing a lot of research regarding Omprezamole which I have stopped taking she said she didnt think it was that,I am having some blood test done on thursday and another appt to see her on 27th may to check my scalp if shampoo hasnt worked she is going to refer me to be checked out by a skin specialist so I will let you know of my progress,have you any scalp problems apart from loss of hair ?
No, just the hair. When you look at all the people having experienced the same thing by taking this, and similar drugs, i cant see it being anything else. Of course it could be Male pattern, but that doesnt run in my family, and doesnt happen "over night". I am going to the doc 3 of june, so hopefully more answers then.
