Brief Answer:
NO!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Hair loss is not a side effect of Eliquis. If this started after starting other medications, I will suggest you rather stop them and see whether that makes a difference or not. Beside, how soon did this hair loss start after taking the new medications?

Keep me posted on this. I wish you well.
