Good morning. I've had an ischemic stroke. Has anyone experienced excessive hair loss after taking nilogrin? I have handfuls of them.

To @AnSy:
As mentioned below, the manufacturer does not mention that patients report hair loss as a side effect of Nilogrin.
If you associate hair loss with the use of the drug, I encourage you to consult your doctor. You can also take advantage of teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

I also encourage you to report any suspected side effect associated with the use of Nilogrin. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over the medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:

Good morning. I've also had an ischemic stroke and I've been using Nilogrin for less than a year. My hair is falling out by the handfuls, I've already lost 2/3 of it, the trichologist is powerless (I've been treated by him for 7 months). Coming back to neurological matters, I feel a slight pressure in my head and hear tinnitus. Smaller after the use of medications, but still it is. Did Nilogrin cause me hair loss? Please reply back to me.

The Summary of Product Characteristics of Nilogrin does not mention possible hair loss following the use of this medicine. I don't know how long ago you had a stroke - you may have been taking other medications at the time that may have an impact on hair loss. It's a good idea to have basic blood tests and urinalysis to assess your overall health. Increased hair loss often accompanies anemia and thyroid dysfunction.
On our website you can check the availability of the medicine and make a reservation at the pharmacy:
