Hi

Dermatological side effects such as rashes can occur commonly with mobizox. Hair loss can occur as a rare side effect of the drug.

I would suggest the patient to stop the drug and use other pain killers and watch for the side effects.

Nutritional deficiency like anemia or hormonal problems like hypothyroidism can also cause hair loss and these conditions should be ruled out.Multivitamin tablets ,adequate fluid intake and healthy diet is also essential.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
