research Severe skin toxicity during whole-brain radiotherapy, targeted therapy, and additional drug intake including St. John’s wort skin oil
St. John's wort skin oil may increase skin damage risk during radiotherapy.
research Telogen Effluvium
Telogen effluvium is a hair loss condition with acute cases resolving quickly and chronic cases potentially lasting longer, sometimes requiring treatment.

Acne is common in adult women, often continues from adolescence, and can lead to scarring.
research P.3.a.011 Dietary intake in subjects with early psychosis: is there a relationship with clinical subtype or antipsychotic treatment?
People with early psychosis eat more calories, saturated fat, and sugar, and the drug olanzapine may lead to eating even more calories.
research Food Administration and Not Genetic Variants Causes Pharmacokinetic Variability of Tadalafil and Finasteride
Food intake, not genetics, affects how the body processes tadalafil and finasteride.
research Development of an improved method to estimate the days of continuous drug ingestion, based on the micro‐segmental hair analysis
Researchers improved a method to more accurately estimate when and how long a drug was taken using hair analysis.
research Maintenance of optimised hair growth from viable terminal scalp hair follicles at baseline with oral finasteride in male pattern hair loss and first evidence of a “drug dependency” and a post-finasteride “rebound effect”.
Finasteride helps hair growth but stopping it causes faster hair loss.
research Drug-induced diffuse hair loss in females: An observational study
Some drugs may cause hair loss in women.
research Treatment with and withdrawal from finasteride alter ethanol intake patterns in male C57BL/6J mice: Potential role of endogenous neurosteroids?
Finasteride affects alcohol intake in male mice, possibly due to neurosteroids.
research Drug-induced acne
Some medications can cause acne, and stopping these drugs is the main treatment.
research Drug-induced hair colour changes
Some medications can cause rare hair color changes, and reporting these side effects is important for patient quality of life.
research Possibility of drug-distribution measurement in the hair of drowned bodies: evaluation of drug stability in water-soaked hair using micro-segmental analysis
Drugs in drowned bodies' hair remain stable in natural water, aiding forensic analysis.
research Drug-induced skin reactions: a pathologist viewpoint
Some drugs can cause skin reactions, which may improve when the drug is stopped, and rapid diagnosis and stopping the drug is crucial.
