✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A 68‐year‐old woman complained of hair loss whilst taking fluoxetine which ceased when the drug was discontinued. This prompted a review of similar reports with other antidepressant drugs and it was found to have occurred with five representative tricyclic compounds and all four 5‐HT uptake‐inhibitors available in the UK. There were no reports of hair loss with trazodone or mianserin. Although extremely rare (0.01 per cent) hair loss has important social and psychological implications in the treatment of depression.
