    I think B vitamins are good for hair. You can buy vitamin packs that particuarly strenghten hair and nails from chemists.

    I lost hair on mtx as well .I have to have my hair thined as i have so much and she did not have to when i was on mtx. The hair was in bad condition also.
    I am on llafludamide or trade name arva and this is doing the same. I have lost hair on a patch at front and back of hair tho it was not noticable. My hair dresser is good and tells me. My hair is in good condition tho.

    Hi Joanne,

    I get mine in a health shop so I am sure they do. We did work out once that its also good for nails. It seems to work, my hair doesn't come out as much as it did though it is sill quite fine. X

    Hi Joanne,

    I think everything is better checked really. There shouldn't be a problem but run it past either your gp or a pharmacist just to be sure. x
