I had the same thing while on Effexor. I eventually lost about 1/3 of the thickness of my hair (judging from ponytail). My pdoc said it's only 1/1000 side effect, but I really thought it was Effexor. I've heard sometime you can lose hair due to the adjustment to a new med, but I quit the Effexor anyway. I still lost some hair every few months (I thought Neurontin was the culprit) but never again so much as when on Effexor. Now I'm off Neurontin too, and so far no more hair loss episodes.
