Hair Loss
Posted: 06-27-05 14:05pm

I am currently taking 2000 mg of depakote a day. I have been having hair loss, much more than normal. I can see my hairline receding. I noticed one of the side effects is hair loss. I asked my neurologists nurse about it and they called me today and told me the only thing they could do would be to change my medication and try topamax. I asked her if there was just something I could take to counter balance the hair loss, she said no, he would change the meds. Anyone here have this problem??? Please let me know. I would appreciate any input!!!!!!!!!!!1

I used to suffer a great amount of hair loss that was caused by epilim.The only thing I found I could do was massage my head regulary.I I bought some oil that is used to treat 'aloplecia'.It worked a treat.Just massage it into your head every other night,you will soon notice the difference. :d hope it works for you as it did for me.
