I have been on tecfidera since September. I am on other meds as well. The past month I have noticed an extreme amount of hairloss and it's coming out in chunks especially after I shower. I've googled to see if its side effects of all my meds and doesn't come up as one. Although I found a discussion board that says some people on tecfidera have experienced this. Is this the case for anyone here?
My nurse says it's normal. But it resolves itself. Biotin is said by lots to work and there's special shampoo you can get which is expensive but worth it. It's for people on other med as well who might have interaction of meds 😊Nia...Ill gey name for youx
Yes its happening to me. My ms nurse said it's poss side of Tec and of Neurontin. More MS nasty little thing but it dies settle after some? months x
I don't know what to think. I don't know what else it could be. My hair has always been thick and full. I mean I'm 27... Does hair start thinning at that age???
Ive been on tech for a year now and when I would brush my hair I pull some one day then a little another day but some days I just put my fingers thru threw my hair and I can pull out hair so im going to ask my neurologist on my next appointment
I don't have any personal experience with the drug. However, my infusion nurse mentioned its reputation for hair loss last month when I was in.
