Could hair loss be the side effect of mepture xl?
Patient: Hi, I am 23.5 years male, 5ft 11 inches tall and 97 kg weight. I was diagnosed with High BP 140/100 in may 2011.Since then I am on Metpure XL 25, One pill a day. Recently I am suffering from hair loss. The hair that falls is mostly thick strands along with some thin ones. Say around 30-40 on an average.My question is, Is this rate of hair fall a part of the normal hair growth cycle or can i be a side-effect of the medicine. Doctor: HIWell come to HCMI really appreciate your concern, hair loss could be due to the Male-pattern-Baldness, and not due to medicine (Mepture xl) but of course some time medicine could facilitate the condition, but in most of the cases the cause would be genetic usually seen in male parson, hope this information helps, take care.
