Can an antibiotic cause hair to shed? Actually, I was on an oral steroid and an antibiotic, as I have a sinus infection that refuses to go away. So, in that light, can the medication cause my hair to shed more than normal? Will it stabilize as I finish the medication?

Yes, an antibiotic can cause shedding. The specifics of how it will affect your hair will vary depending on you personally as well as which antibiotic you are taking, so I suggest talking to your doctor about this. Good luck!
