Does emgality cause hair loss?

I recently started Emgality injections for my chronic migraines, and while it's helping with the headaches, I've noticed my hair thinning quite a bit. Could Emgality be causing this hair loss?

Haan yaar, maine bhi suna hai kuch logon ko Emgality se hair fall hota hai. Par har kisi ke saath nahi hota na. Doctor se ek baar confirm kar lo iske baare mein.

Yes, hair loss is reported by some people taking Emgality, though it is not listed as a very common side effect.

I started Emgality last month and my hair is falling out in clumps. I am so stressed about it. Has anyone else experienced this kind of sudden hair loss?

Don't fall for random hair oils or supplements you see on the internet to cure this. If Emgality is causing your hair loss, your neurologist needs to evaluate it scientifically. Please book an appointment.

While managing diabetes, I learned that any major medication can stress the body and cause temporary hair shedding. Focus on nutritional food like seeds and leafy greens, but keep your doctor informed.

My mother suggested using curry leaves oil for the hair fall, but since Emgality is a strong medication, I suggest you trust your doctor. Let them know about this side effect so they can guide you properly.

I can only speak from my experience with Emgality. I did notice some hair thinning after my third dose, but it stopped after a few months. Check with your clinic to see what they say.
