Just wondered. I took folic acid for awhile when I was given methotrexate to try to cut down on the prednizone. Thne the metho made me sick so I stopped it. Now I am still on 19 mg of Pred and my hair falls out and doesn't seem to grown back. Would going back on folic acid help? What do you all do?

My hair has turned dry and brittle and I don't know if it's the MPR or the prednesone, but I use a great shampoo and conditioner for thinning hair and it makes me hair feel great. It's called pura d'or, it's expensive, but I'm worth it. I buy it on Amazon.

Specially for the hair as I know is Biotin.
Iam sure you are asking for a different problem having PMR and GCA.
Hope you get the right answer for you.
Stay well.
