My hair has definitely been coming out since I started taking it....it's gotten very thin and I have bald spots

I am not sure whether it was the predisone or plaquenil but I lost just about all of my hair. I resorted to hair braids, wigs or weaves. I also suffer from psorasis all over and scalp. I make sure I deep condition my hair and go natural for a few days before changing to a new style.

I quit dying and perming my hair for fear of losing it but even at that my hair is thinning I just cut it shorter to an easier style so I don't have to use the iron on it as much
