I have written in recently concerning Metoprolol and side effect of HAIR LOSS. My Dr. has now prescribed Hydrochlorothiazide. He said he didn't think it would cause hair loss. Has anyone had an experience with side effects? Thanks, Susan
Hydrochlortrithiazide, 20 mg. Have been taking this dosage for the past year. My hair is noticeably thinner, fly away and dry. I have had healthy, thick hair prior to using this blood pressure drug. Will ask my physician to substitute with an alternative medication.
Have also noticed a sensitivity to bright lights, sunlight. Am prone to skin allergies since beginning this medication. Skin is very dry, as well.
My husband has hypertension, he is currently on the following medications: Lisinopril-20mg/1x day; Chlorthalidone-25mg/1x day; Metoprolol Tartrate-100mg-twice a day; Diltiazem CD-180mg/1x day; Furosemide-40mg/1x day; Hydralazine-50mg/1x day; Hydralazine-40mg/1x day.
His previous medications were, Hydrochlorothiazide-25mg/1x day; Quinapril-40mg/2x day; Verapamil ER-180mg/1x day; Spironolactone-25mg/1x day; Hydralazine-100mg/every 8hrs
Recently he has begun to experience some memory problems, and sometimes he has a cough. I am very concerned about drug-drug interactions.
Thanks
