Question

Can Prilosec cause thinning of the hair?

Réponse de nos experts

Most of the time, thinning of the hair is associated with poor nutrition, failure to thrive, or weight loss. Unfortunately, these are more likely to be issues with our patients (as opposed to old age in ourselves). I have never seen hair loss with Prilosec in any of my patients. The medication listing compendium we use states that hair loss is not a side effect posted for Prilosec

In every CdLS individual with prolonged and marked feeding difficulties, the multidisciplinary assessment (from healthcare workers across many disciplines) should consider (temporary) placement of a gastrostomy (surgical opening through the abdomen into the stomach) as a supplement to oral feeding.
R13
In individuals with CdLS who have recurrent respiratory infections, reflux and/or aspiration (breathing foreign objects into airways) should be ruled out.
R14
The palate should be closely examined at diagnosis. In case of symptoms of a (submucous) cleft palate, referral for specialist assessment is indicated.
R15
Dental assessment and cleaning should take place regularly; a more thorough dental examination or treatment under anaesthesia may be necessary.
