» » Hi Gillian,

I read your last message about your concerns about effexor. Did you end up using that and if so what kind of reactions have you had? Did you end up losing your hair??? I would appreciate your response. Thanks very much!!!

Effexor does not seem to cause hair loss.

» Dear Admin: you say Effexor does not cause hair loss but I also read
» accounts that it does? I took celexa and lexapro for years and had no
» trouble with hairloss. I started on Wellbutrin, and after 7 months (and
» many stressful triggors), I started shedding. If the hairloss is due to
» the wellbutrin, shouldnt the hairloss occur when I first began taking it?

» I was checked for hormone imbalances, thyroid and iron - all normal. The
» doc says its stress related. I had been taking spironolactone for 3 years
» for facial hair and wonder if the hairloss could be related to
» discontinuing that med?

» The wellbutrin has helped greatly with depression, but the hairloss has
» been going on for over 1 1/2 years and becomming depressing. My pdoc

» I dont know what to do.
