I'm really concerned because I've been losing hair from my scalp, body, and even my public hair for the past eight months. It all seemed to start when I was diagnosed with acid reflux and began taking the medication the doctor prescribed. I only took them for two days before I noticed the hair loss. On top of that, I've been dealing with dandruff for the last five years. Could this hair loss be related to the meds I was taking or maybe the dandruff, scalp psoriasis, or even a deficiency or something else entirely? The medicines I was prescribed were Picotex syrup, Tricaine MPS gel, Orypan DSR, Arcalion tab, Orycobal cap, and Biopride cap. Any idea what's going on?
