Any first hand experience with Candesartan cilexetil ?


Recommended Posts

Posted

The above mentioned drug is prescribed for high blood pressure, amongst other health conditions.

Recently, whilst I was browsing some website containing reviews of this medication, some users had mentioned about experiencing thinning of hair. This side effect is not mentioned in the Patient Information Leaflet.

Any comments?

I've been prescribed the 8mg tablet now for over 15 years and have not noticed any side effects including thinning hair.

I have had a small bald patch at the back of my head increase in size a little over the years but at 75 y.o. put this down to age rather than medication.

Hope that puts your mind at ease.

Thank you very much indeed, for the info.
