Hair loss appears to be a rare complaint in people taking
Accupril® (
quinapril hydrochloride). In clinical studies, hair loss was reported in less than 1 percent of people who took Accupril. Given how common hair loss is in the general population and how rare a complaint it is in people who take Accupril, it is difficult to say whether hair loss is caused by the medicine, genetics, other factors, or a combination of these things.
If you experience hair loss while taking Accupril, talk with your healthcare provider. Depending on how severe the hair loss is, there are things that he or she may be able to do. It is possible that if hair loss becomes bothersome, your doctor may recommend adjusting the
Accupril dosage or trying another medicine for your condition.
