Does Pregbalin cause hair loss, I have read that it does and my hair is very thin I thought it was because I'd used a bleach highlighter but have read Pregbalin causes this. I am so upset and worried.

Hi Croque, I've been on Pregablin now for about 8yrs, and my hair is just the same as it's always been. The only problem I've ever had with my hair was when I found I had an Underactive Thyroid then it just went course but I've solved that by using baby shampoo at the advise of my hairdresser. So good luck but I don't think it can be the Pregablin

Yes I have tried lots of probiotics, mainly for my IBS, but no I don't think they have any effect.
