I have been taking Hydrea for four years. I can't really say that I can attribute anything in particular as symptoms of hydrea. OK, I have dry skin. I use a high quality moisturizer to treat that. I use Cetaphil.

I have been taking Hydrea for PV for almost 2 years. I have had considerable hair loss for the last 8 mths or so. Bald patches on top and back of my head. Worse still is the rash which is driving me crazy, is mainly on my shoulders & tops of my arms, few patches on my chest & throughout my scalp. I tried moisturisers, to no avail. Did have rash for a couple of weeks last year but was so relieved they faded away. I'm tired all the time and struggle to do the basic housework. I will be 77 in June.
