I am on Tacrolimus and Prednisone after my Kidney Transplant. I researched Prednisone, and it seems to be the cause of all my hair-loss problems along with others such as diabetes. Are you taking prednisone also? If so, look that drug up and be surprised.

Topical tacrolimus preserves hair. I have it on the authority of the hair loss expert at Duke University.
