I have been experiencing significant hair loss and I'm trying to figure out if there is a known side effect of this with slow-mag. I am a 58y/o male.
I am taking one tab of slow-mag daily I am told due to ongoing diuretic therapy with furosemide?

I've research both of those drugs and neither of them have hair loss as a mild, moderate, or severe side effect when taking either. However I know of a few drugs that can cause hair loss. Accutane causes hair loss. Also being a diabetic can cause hair loss. Here are a few FDA approved products on the market to help re-grow hair or at lease stimulate re-growth.Minoxidil and Finasteride. I hope this helps a little bit. Have a great day and happy holidays!
