I'm worried that my hair is falling out because of the Acenac MR tablets I've been taking. Do you think it could be the cause? Also, is there any way to regrow my hair with medication? How can I reach out to you for advice?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Hair loss can be distressing! Acneac MR tablets, which contain minocycline, can contribute to hair loss as a rare side effect. However, it's essential to consult your doctor to determine if the tablets are the primary cause of your hair fall.
Other possible causes of hair loss:
- Hormonal imbalances
- Genetics
- Nutritional deficiencies (e.g., iron, zinc, or biotin)
- Stress
- Certain medical conditions (e.g., thyroid disorders, autoimmune diseases)
Can hair regrow with medication?
Yes, in some cases, medication can help promote hair growth or slow down hair loss
