Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You need to talk with your doctor about hair loss to receive adequate treatment as there are many causes for hair loss. If you still experience hair loss despite the treatment provided, your doctor will consider Concerta as the cause for hair loss and will change it with other drug.

I hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Take care.
