Clobazam sent my hair curly like a corkscrew

There seemed to be absolutely no explanation for this whatsoever.
Clobazam was added to a number of different medications I was already taking. It was clearly the one that affected my hair as it went back to it's usual straight effect after it was withdrawn from use.

  1. Hi Jill, if you are asking about the change in hair follicles from straight to wildly curly...'No' my Consultant wasn't aware of such a change before nor was the Pharmacist. I have always been on a number of anti-convulsant meds since my epilepsy began so its difficult to say what the cause was. It could have been an interaction with one or several of them that caused it.
    It's just weird to experience something going with your brain working strangely and your scalp at the same time. Take care. Janine.

    1. Hi that is so interesting. I wonder if you mention this to your doctor, if they will say they have heard similar responses from other patients. Jill (Team Member)
