No, Livogen doesn't cause hair loss. In-fact iron deficiency or iron deficiency anemia can result in hair loss. Hair loss could be due to an underlying disease or even hormonal imbalance. It is, therefore, important to investigate and rectify these conditions.

Livogen is available in the form of a tablet, capsule, syrup, drop, suspension, and injection. It is to be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. One should take the dose at the same time every day to avoid missing or skipping it. Livogen may cause nausea, diarrhea and stomach cramps. It is, therefore, important to take it with some food. Milk, calcium, and antacids should not be taken at the same time as that of Livogen.
