i started losing hair on adderall within 4-5 days after the dose was increased from 20 mg once a day to 20 mg twice a day. i started using minoxidil (lipogaine as well as kirkland generic) to regrow hair along with dutasteride 2.5 mg. i also wash my hair with regenepure. along with hair loss, i experience scalp itchiness and dandruff after stopping the medication. will minoxidil and dutasteride help speed up hair regrowth? early twenties, male, no MPB, previous hair loss after dieting EC stack
