Yes, Jardiance can cause hair loss as a side effect. According to the information in the summary of product characteristics, hair loss is listed as one of the most common side effects affecting up to 1 in 10 patients taking this medicine.
The mechanism that causes hair loss when using Jardiance is not entirely clear. This may be related to the drug's hormonal effects or a disruption of the hair growth cycle. Hair loss caused by medication usually disappears after discontinuation of the preparation, although sometimes it can persist for several months.
It is advisable to inform your doctor if you experience this side effect during Jardiance therapy. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
