Hi,
Zocor tablets are one of many statins (Simvastatins), which treat people with high cholesterol. The other main statins that are used are used are Lipitor and Mevacor.

Hair Loss is one of the main side effects noted by persons who use these drugs.
The hair loss is temporary when taking zocor or any other statin and when treatment is stopped hair loss will stop.

The substitutes that you are put on will not cause the same side effect that has caused you to discontinue the drug.
