What Causes Hair Loss While On Toprol XL?

I am 66 year old woman. The only med I take is 25 mg of toprol for an atrial flutter. Otherwise! I m in good health. I have been losing my hair. I cannot figure out why. Last week I went to health fair to do a blood draw and had all thyroid tests done. No results yet. What else could be the cause?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Consult a dermatologist and get evaluated. The hair loss may not be related to Toprol. As a first line management you can apply Minoxidil lotion for symptomatic relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
