It was from Adderall which is a combination of neutral sulfate salts of: Dextroamphetamine Saccharate, Amphetamine Aspartate, Dextroamphetamine Sulfate USP and Amphetamine Sulfate USP. I believe Ephedrine is a little different as is contains not actual amphetamines but amphetamine like compounds?
I just read on WebMD (http://my.webmd.com/content/article/110/109705) that Amphetamines can not only cause temporary hair loss but can trigger the onset of male pattern baldness. I am going to see a doctor now because I am obsessing over this and my hair will not stop falling out, my scalp also feels irritated...
I am almost positive that it is a direct result of the medication I was taking. Do you know if amphetamines can expedite the beginning stages of male pattern baldness?
I started Adderall a few months ago and stopped after realizing that my thinning hair was a result. Does anyone know if the hair that was lost will grow back? I have been off it for about 2 weeks and it still seems to be falling out.
