Hair loss and dandruff
I am losing my hair from scalp, body hair and public hair since last 8 months . I was diagnosed with acid reflux and took the medicine prescribed by doctor. After taking medicine for 2 days I noticed hair loss. I am also having dandruff since last 5 years. Is it due to such medications or dandruff/scalp psoriasis or any deficiencies or any other reason behind this? Following medicines are prescribed- Picotex syp Tricaine MPS gel Orypan DSR Arcalion tab Orycobal cap Biopride cap
