October 1992 in “Journal of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics” The document discussed drug-induced hair color changes, which were not common adverse effects of medications. It highlighted that while a variety of drugs were implicated in causing hair color changes, only chloroquine and cancer chemotherapeutic agents had substantial evidence supporting this association. Other drugs, such as p-aminobenzoic acid, calcium pantothenate, anthralin, chinoform, mephenesin, minoxidil, propofol, valproic acid, and verapamil, were mentioned as needing further confirmatory data. The study suggested that drug-induced causes should be considered in patients with unexplained hair color changes.
