I have used Prevacid / Lanzoprazol for a couple of years now. I have been slowly losing hair over that time and lately my hair has thinned considerably. I couldn't figure out why. I was relieved when I’ve heard that I wasn't the only one that has experienced this mysterious hair loss. I have quit taking Prevacid / Lanzoprazol and hope to see some of it come back. Anybody know if this happens just by stopping the Prevacid?
I have been taking Prevacid/ Lanzoprazol for a year. I am experiencing exactly the same problem. I used to have thick hair and it is no longer a case. Now, when I read your post I know why. I wasn’t sure that Prevacid/ Lanzoprazol can cause this, but I am sure. I don’t know what I am going to do. One time I try to get off, but my symptoms returned. Now I am worried and confused. I think I am going to consult my doctor what to do about the Prevacid/ Lanzoprazol
