Can I Take 'oxyelite Pro' While Suffering From Hair Loss?

Hello! I am 20 years old and around 140 pounds.
I was diagnosed with alopecia areata in 2010. Recently it has gotten a little worse, hair loss EVERYDAY.
I am considering taking oxyelite pro, but I am not sure if it will worsen my alopecia or not.
Am I safe to take it?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

For Alopecia Areata, the accepted treatment modalities are either intralesional Triamcinolone Acetonide injection for focal patches or topical steroids, Minoxidil solution. The treatment that you mention is a fat burning modality and it won't work for Alopecia Areata. Kindly contact a dermatologist in your region for more details on management options for Alopecia Areata.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Kakkar S.
