Brief Answer:
NO!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

None of these drugs is known to cause hair loss.How much hair loss are we talking about? Is it much or a little? Has your thyroid been evaluated? Low thyroid might cause hair to be fragile and easily fall off when brushing. I will suggest you get t evaluated if not yet done.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
