Re: Can Xanax, Zoloft or other meds like that worsen hairloss?

hair loss is listed as one of the side effects of zoloft yes, but i think this is
b***sh*t really.

i did use zoloft from the age of 16 to 18, and did experience a rapid hair loss in this period, but i think it all boils down to genetics.

my hair loss hasnt stopped while off the drug.

I was on Citalopram for a year, stayed NW1
then was on Amitriptyline 100mg for ~2 years, stayed NW1.

My hair loss started about a year after I started decreasing my TCA dosage.
Been on Diazepam ('tis a longer acting benzo than Alprazolam) on and off and noticed no correlation. Been on opioid painkillers on and off also.

I don't think any of the above meds cause male pattern baldness. At all.
