Lamictal Hairloss
Fri, 10/14/2016 - 09:10Topic: New to Epilepsy.com
Like everyone else here I too am on Lamictal 500mg daily. I use to have a ton of hair. Now I have hardly any. Every morning I can scrape a ton of it off the floor. This morning it was clumps. I'm freaking out. Stress causes my seizures so I don't need to be worrying about my hair. I use to be on Tegretol and Topomax and had tons of hair. Now with my thin hair I'm scared to try anything new. What if I lose the rest of it? Lamictal controls my seizures but not my Auras. I also take a bunch of vitamins. Biotin, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, Flax Seed Oil, Multivitamin, Hair Vitamin, D3, B12. You name it I'm taking it. What have you found that works?
