Medications that cause hair loss

Does anyone have experience of hair loss from using retin A for several years? I have been using retin A gel on my face, for ages. I started using it for adult acne but have been using it because it's slows down skin aging (wrinkles). I believe it speeds up cell turnover. The fact that accutane can cause hair loss made me wonder about retin A.
