My 10 year old granddaughter has been on Dulera and proair for asthma. She has lost her hair 2 or 3 times since on these medications. she is currently loosing her hair again. It is not to the scalp, bet leaves her with a 1/2 in fuzz. Can these medications be causing this? She has had all kinds of testing done to rule out other causes.
Respected User, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.*Per se Ruler & Proair not directly associated as side effects causing excess hair loss, but - decreased host immune response following corticosteroids - less amount of iron, protein, trace elements like zinc, magnesium needed for hair growth & maintenance are responsible for it.*Remedy is directed to : enrich food in iron, protein, multivitamins, multiminerals along with local applications of certain agents to make hair roots stronger. Hope this clears your query. Thanks for using Chat Doctor & keeping trust in our services. Wishing her fine and speedy hair growth. Regards.
