Alopecia/Hair Loss caused by Topamax

Hi,I recently tried Xeljanz for my diffuse alopecia, but it did not work for me and my doctor told me to stop using it. My next step is to go off my Topamax medication. 've been on topamax for approximately 12 years (for chronic headaches). Has anyone on here experienced hair loss from topamax? When I searched online I saw 100s of posts/articles on the issue. But was hoping to talk to someone about similar experiences.Thanks!See More

"Does anyone have crazy cystic acne while on Xeljanz? Mine has gotten so bad. My doctor says this only happens to 1% .. lucky me. Meanwhile after 2 months it still hasn't stopped my shedding :( "

"Definitely good point and interesting theory. I thought about this myself - that you cannot notice results right away since hair works in cycles and takes about 3 months to cycle through each. "

Xeljanz for Alopecia Areata Incognita - Question

Posted on October 29, 2019 at 5:10pm 5 Comments

Hi All,

I began Xeljanz for my Alopecia Areata Icognita 1 week ago. About how long have most of you gone before you noticed the medicine taking affect? When will my shedding slow down? REALLY hoping this medicine works for me.

Thanks!

Dana
