What Causes Severe Hair Loss While On Xarelto For DVT In Arms?
Hi, I had been using Xarelto due to a Dvt in my right arm back in September of this year and 3 weeks ago I develop a clott in my lung due to a total Hysterectomy. Back in September when I developed the DVT in my arm and I started to take Xarelto I noticed hair loss, and it continuos to fall more often now. It could be this a side effect of this medication (Xarelto) the reason why I m losing so much hair?

Xarelto does not causes side effects like hair fall.Its common side effects are bleeding from different organs.The hair fall may be due to any other reason.Change your shampoo.Take zinc containing supplements.Use hair oils with regular massage.
