Can Xarelto cause hair loss?

Me, too. I'm on Xarelto and flecainide. Lot of hair loss. Am going to see if using black seed oil, pumpkin seed oil and castor oil will combat it. I've researched that they are helpful.

I have been having the same problem with hair loss for over 2 years now. I brought this up to my family doctor, which she said that it is not a known side effects although this is the only new medication I’ve been on and it started shortly after. She took several blood tests and nothing came back as the cause of my hair loss. I’m so frustrated my hair used to be so thick and beautiful now it is so limp and thin. My stylist is worried because it falls out in gobs. Has anyone tried any other blood thinners that didnt cause this side effect?

Im 23 and I started taking Xarelto Nov 2021 for sever blood clots in my legs. It was a side effect of my hormonal birth control. I noticed at the end of December 2021 that i was experiencing severe hair loss.. I thought it was stress from the holidays. Well now in Feb of 2022 I realized my hair loss started with this new medication. I'm seriously concerned about the amount of hair loss I've experienced. And I do so much for my hair to keep it healthy. I take supplements that were working wonders before i started Xarelto. I do hair masks, use oils and leave in conditioners, silk scrunchies and pillow cases. I only uses heat to dry my hair when i wash it once a week. And despite all of this my hair keeps falling out of my head. I'm on Xarelto for another few months.
Maybe the rest of my life if im unlucky. Im worried about what might happen if is have to stay on this

I was on Lovenox for 7 months due to a DVT and pulmonary embolism caused by Tamoxifen. Was switched to Xarelto 2 weeks ago and my hair immediately started falling out in clumps. At this rate I will be bald within 2 months.

I had significant hair loss with Xarelto and called the pharmaceutical company that makes the drug. I spoke with a pharmacist, who said he was not aware of this side effect. I explained that, in fact, my hair loss was ongoing and significant. He did not seem to believe me or care. Just recently I was given Eliquis for a blood clot in my brain that caused a stroke. Once again, I am experiencing significant hair loss. No one seems to be able to explain the relationship between blood thinners and my hair loss, but it's real and not my imagination. When I wash my hair, my hands are covered with my hair, which then, of course, ends up all over the floor of the shower/tub. I am seeking an answer to why this is happening and would love to hear from others who have had similar reactions to blood thinners (not any particular medication because I've experienced this with 2 different brands). Thank you.

I was on Xarelto for 6 months and had Significant hair loss (by the hand-fulls!)!! Told my pulmonogist he changed me to Eliquis- which stopped the hair loss!! Everyone needs to know if this side effect!!

I have been on Xarelto since June 5, 2018. I used to take Eliquis but had hair loss. Thought I would try Xarelto. It was worse than Eliquis for hair loss. My hair comes out in handfuls and is dull and thin. Quit taking Xarelto on August 14, 2018. Went back on Coumadin. My hair is still coming out by the handfuls. I was on Coumadin for almost 2 years but all the doctors were saying get off of the Coumadin. Worse thing I did. Taking Xarelto and having major hair loss is a side effect. Now a week later all I can hope for is that taking Xarelto didn't cause permanent hair loss.
