What Causes Hair Loss While On Carvedilol For High Blood Pressure?
I have been taking carvedolil for high blood pressure since June 23 of this year and am experiencing hair loss. I stopped taking the medication September 13th (6 days ago). My hair is still falling out. When can I expect the hair loss to stop? Thank you.
