Not likely: This is really a moderately potent multivitamin including B-vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E and zinc. The doses aren't on the higher side but not so high as to be particularly concerning. Though be aware, I can't be very sure how much this will help your hair loss. Hopefully a doctors has evaluated you for this.
