Hello. It is important to list your other medication as some medications do not work well with each other.
Loss of hair is usually associated with severe illness, high fevers, thyroid problems. Have you told your physician about this? Hair loss is often temporary and a natural cycle of the body. This medication does produce rashes and sun sensitivity in some people. Is your scalp itchy or scaling?
We can check how this interacts with other medications, supplements, and OTC you may be taking.
