Quite a while back my Pdoc suggested putting me on depakote. I laughed at him and simply said, "Well sir, that may cause my hair to fall out. I'll have none of that." He informed me that he could write me a prescription for something (I don't know what??) that would counteract that. I did take Lamictal for a while but didn't notice, rather was too depressed to care if I lost my hair.

There is a post higher up that talks about Topamax. It's an anticonvulsant (which I use for a dx of Bipolar disorder and it's my WONDER DRUG!!!) but headache queen talks about some different vitamins she uses to counteract thinning and potential loss of hair. If you feel like scrolling through various posts, it may be worth your time.....
I don't know how to find the link or I would.. Let me see if I can try... Cross your fingers and wish me luck :)
