Does amlodipine cause hair loss?

Hey, don't stress too much about this! Hair loss is not a common side effect of amlodipine at all. Stressing about it will actually cause more hair fall than the pill itself, so relax.

Before you buy expensive hair serums, get a basic thyroid and iron test done. Often, the hair fall is due to simple vitamin deficiencies and not your amlodipine tablet. Planning these cheap tests first saves a lot of money.

I've been taking amlodipine for my BP for a year now. My hair is perfectly fine, no extra shedding or anything. It's probably due to water quality or monsoon season if you are seeing hair fall.

It is unlikely that amlodipine is causing this. Ensure you are getting enough protein from sprouts, paneer, and lentils daily, as a lack of protein is often the real reason behind sudden hair thinning.

I had some hair fall when I started amlodipine a few months ago, but it turned out to be Vitamin D deficiency. Once I took my supplements, my hair recovered completely. The medicine itself wasn't the culprit.

I agree, it's very rare. Try adding curry leaves and amla to your diet to keep your hair roots strong.

I recently started taking this BP pill and my hair brush has more hair than usual. Is anyone else facing hair thinning after starting amlodipine? I am getting really worried about losing my volume.
