Hi. I posted a few days ago about my sister experiencing hair loss with Fluoxotine. She went to her GP today and he prescribed Citalopram saying it was a better AD.

We have been doing some research and it looks like Citalopram can cause hair loss also. The main AD's to cause hairloss were Fluoxetine, Sertraline, Citalopram and Paroxatine (?).

Does anyone know if there is at least ONE AD that DOESN'T cause hairloss???

She is very worried as she can't afford to loose anymore hair.
