I have had hair thinning because of aging, and probably due to the meds, you cannot take as much medication as a Parkinson’s patient takes and not be affected by it. I don’t take azilect but I take plenty of other stuff.

No Azilect doesn't have any side effects for me/

I am. My hair is falling out every time I turn around. There is hair all over the house, the car, my clothes and the bed. But it’s a small price to pay for medication that helps with Parkinson’s disease. Hugs.

YES! I don't know what is causing it but it did become much more rapid after starting PD meds.
