I've been losing a lot of hair recently and even noticed some bald spots. My doctor, Nimesh Shah, prescribed me MBSON SL 1500mg to take every morning for the past 15 days. I'm really hoping this will help with the hair fall. Can you tell if this will actually work for me?

I've been using Momate as my doctor advised, but I stopped about a week ago. Since then, I noticed a few pimples popping up, which seemed normal at first.
