A friend wants to know if using antibiotics and having an allergic reaction equals hair loss?

She had a problem over a year ago and lost a lot of hair from antibiotics, she is losing hair again and she is on antibiotics for a bladder infection she said it is sulfur based, can anyone relate to a similar situation ? Thank you

I didn't lose hair from it, but it tears up the digestive system pretty bad.

sulfur has never had that affect on me. You may want to tell her to check webmd. they have drug interactions and reactions.

In most cases, (and I would consult a Doctor), hair loss can be attributed to a low thyroid activity, (hypothyroid), depression, diet, medications and/or overwashing of hair, or using a strong irritating shampoo. Massaging the scalp helps also for circulation in the area.
